	<title>Publishing to the Web</title>

    <p>Through the use of <link xref="other-plugins">plugins</link>, Shotwell can publish photos 
    and videos to the following services, each of which requires an account:</p>
    
    <list>
    <item><p><link href="https://flickr.com">Flickr</link></p></item>
    <item><p><link href="https://photos.google.com">Google Photos</link></p></item>
    <item><p><link href="https://youtube.com">YouTube</link> (videos only)</p></item>
    <item><p><link href="https://tumblr.com">Tumblr</link> (Photos only)</p></item>
    <item><p>Any site running the <link href="http://piwigo.org">Piwigo</link> photo gallery software (photos only)</p></item>
    </list>
    
    <p>To publish selected photos in a collection, choose <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui></guiseq> and
    click on the <gui>Plugins</gui> tab to enable the plugin for the service you want to publish to.  Next, choose,
     <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>Publish</gui></guiseq>, press the <gui>Publish</gui> toolbar button or use <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>Shift</key><key>P</key></keyseq>.
    You will see a dialog that lets you select a publishing service.  You will then need to log in or create an account.</p>
    
    <p>Similarly, publishing to Flickr, YouTube or Google Photos requires you to log in and permit Shotwell Connect to access your account.</p>
