How to set up watermarks on your galleries
Protect your photos with server-side watermarks. Customize the watermark position, opacity, and size to match your brand.
Steps
- Go to Settings > Watermark in your dashboard to configure your default watermark.
- Upload your watermark image, ideally a transparent PNG of your logo.
- Set the watermark size as a percentage of the photo width (recommended 30 to 50 percent).
- Choose the position: center, bottom-right, or tiled across the image.
- Adjust the opacity slider (recommended 30 to 50 percent for visibility without being intrusive).
- Preview the watermark on a sample photo to check the appearance.
- Click Save to apply the watermark to all unpaid gallery photos automatically.
๐ก Tip: Watermarks are applied server-side so they cannot be removed by inspecting the page source or taking screenshots.
