### Delete and Restore Galleries

A deleted gallery goes to the trash and comes back from there with one click. Once the retention period is over it disappears on its own; you can also delete it for good right away.

#### Delete a gallery #

Galleries Gallery card Move to Trash

Click the bin icon (“Delete”) on the card and confirm “Delete gallery?” with “Move to Trash”.

The gallery leaves the list under “Galleries” and sits in the trash. Its link stops leading to the photos straight away.

Important

If images from this gallery sit in a photo book or a collage, the frames there stay and go empty. aftersnap points that out when you delete.

#### Restore #

Menu with your name Trash

- Open the trash through the menu with your name or the “Trash” card on the overview.

- Click “Restore” in the row of the gallery.

For every gallery the trash names the date on which it will be deleted for good automatically.

Check the result

The gallery is back under “Galleries”, with its photos, its settings and its old link.

#### Delete for good #

- Click “Delete Now” in the row and confirm “Permanently delete this gallery?” with “Delete Permanently”.

- For everything at once, take “Empty Trash” and confirm.

Important

That is the end of the gallery and its photos. There is no second trash and no way back.
