Wix Photo Albums: Updating Your Old Albums to the New Templates

In this article
  • Updating Photo Albums to the new templates
  • Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
The new Photo Albums templates allow for more design and customization options. If you have any albums built with the old templates (prior to December 2019) you can update to the newest version in order to edit and manage them.
When you update your old album, a duplicate version that uses the new templates is created automatically. You can then edit and customize the new version to use all the new template features. 
Note:
Any albums created before December 2019 will still work as expected but they cannot be edited or updated.

Updating Photo Albums to the new templates

When you update your album, a new duplicate version is created automatically. You can then edit and publish this new version using the new template features.
Please note, your old album will still be visible on your site. After updating, make sure to go to your Editor to hide the old version and show the new version. 

To update your Photo Albums:

  1. Go to Photo Albums in your site's dashboard.
  2. Click Manage Album next to the relevant album created before December 2019. 
  3. A pop-up asks you to update this album before you can manage it. Click Let's Go to duplicate the album into the new template.
