+ <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="http://facebook.com">Facebook</link></p></item>
+ <item><p><link href="http://flickr.com">Flickr</link></p></item>
+ <item><p><link href="http://picasaweb.google.com">Picasa Web Albums</link> and <link href="http://plus.google.com">Google+</link></p></item>
+ <item><p><link href="http://youtube.com">YouTube</link> (videos only)</p></item>
+ <item><p><link href="http://fotki.yandex.ru">Yandex.Fotki</link>, a photo site popular in Russia (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>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>Publishing to Facebook requires you to grant certain permissions to the Shotwell Connect Facebook application.
+ You only need to grant these permissions once, when you first associate Shotwell Connect with your Facebook account.
+</p>
+
+ <p>Similarly, publishing to Flickr requires you to log in and permit Shotwell Connect to access your account.</p>
+
+ <p>If you have a Google account, but have not yet used Picasa Web Albums, you will need to log in to Picasa using a browser once before you can publish to this service.</p>
