Good Afternoon,

I looked but was unable to find or figure out how to or if it is possible to move multiple files and or photos at once from the Files section or the Photos section. For example, holding the shift while selecting multiple files in Windows allows selection of multiple files at once or holding the ctrl allows selection of multiple specific files for copying, deletion, pasting etc..?

Is this possible in the groups.io?

Thank you!

Here's the Help for files, etc. Also lots of discussion in the past week about multiple files, etc. in this group.

No, Files and Photos must be done one at a time.? You can move an entire file folder, but not a photo album (since there are no sub-albums).

As was stated already, you cannot move more than one, but since your message subject also included "Uploading", there's a sideways method to move more than one file from Files (either dispersed or within a folder) into a single Photo Album.

You export the Files, unzip and keep only the ones you want to move, arrange them as desired, then grab all the pertinent photos to a specific album and upload them at once into it, since you can upload more than one photo at a time into an album.

Two considerations, you'll need to manually add any description text to the uploaded photos if the Files entry had one, and also manually delete the originals from Files.

And one issue you'll run into, the owner will now be you (or whoever does this), not the original uploader/owner, but that can be changed to the original owner albeit one photo at a time.

Cheers,
Christos
