Disallow adding to Collections

By default, the photographs that you upload are allowed to be added to collections by other Zenfolio users. That means that any registered Zenfolio user can add your photos to their collections.

This is a separate function from your clients adding your photos to a Favorites List.

You can specifically exclude a gallery or photograph from being added to collections. When you exclude photographs being added to collections, you as the owner can continue including them in your collections, but no one else will be allowed to do that.
