Adding a Photo to a Person’s Profile
You can add photos to any person in the Family Directory. Photos help bring the directory to life and make it easier for family members to recognize and connect with each other.
How to Add a Photo
- Open the person’s profile in the Family Directory.
- Click the Add Photo button.
- Choose a photo from your device.
- Optional: Add a caption to describe the photo.
- Click Upload Photo to save it.
Photos should be family‑appropriate and related to the person you are adding them to.
Photo Guidelines
To keep the directory clean and consistent, please follow these guidelines:
- Use clear, recognizable photos when possible.
- Avoid blurry or extremely small images.
- Use recent photos if available.
- One person per photo is ideal, but group photos are allowed if relevant.
Captions
Captions are optional but helpful. You can use them to:
- Identify who is in the photo
- Describe when or where it was taken
- Add context or a short story
Where Photos Appear
Once uploaded, photos appear on the person’s profile page. They may also appear in:
- Directory search results (as a small thumbnail)
- Family Stories if linked to a story
- Future gallery features if added later
Editing or Removing Photos
You can edit or delete a photo at any time. Open the person’s profile, click the photo, and choose the appropriate action.
Tips for Great Profile Photos
- Use well‑lit photos with the person’s face visible.
- Crop out distractions when possible.
- Use consistent styles for family members (optional but nice).
