I am a Gallery Host. Photos in my Albums are Approved. How do I change Approved photos back to PA, Pending Approval?
A Host has one method that can be used to change photos from
Host Appraisal: Approved to Host Appraisal: Pending Approval.
Why would I want to change Approved photos to PA, Pending Approval?
You may have some other ideas, however, here are a few uses:
As a punishment, perhaps.
As a means of temporarily hiding all of a Member's or the Host's photos. PA, Pending Approval photos are only visible by the Submitter and the Host.
A Host could use this method to temporarily, if desired, make some or all of a Member's photos unable to compete in Contests.
That is because PA, Pending Approval photos will not be judged or rated.
