On Hipcamp, there are a few different photo albums that you can add photos to! You can edit and reorder your photos from the Property tab in the Host Dashboard.
Editing the order of photos on your Property page
The Property photo album should be a collection of photos that show off your Property in a general way and that include areas and amenities that anyone visiting will be able to enjoy and access. To edit the photos that display in your Property photo album:
- Head to your Property tab in the Host Dashboard or the app
- Scroll down and click on Photos on the left-hand side
- Click and drag to re-order your photos (or click Upload new photos to add new photos).
Editing the order of photos on a Site page
If you have designated Sites, you should upload Site-specific photos! If there are amenities or details that can only be used if you book a specific Site, save those photos to upload to show off on that Site specifically.
If you have undesignated Sites, you should upload photos that show the general area that campers can set up in. (Reminder: Undesignated Sites mean that campers choose a place to camp on arrival).
- Head to your Property tab in the Host Dashboard or the app
- Click on the site you are wanting to edit
- Scroll down and click on Photos on the left-hand side
- Click and drag to re-order your photos (or click Upload new photos to add new photos).
What if the photos aren't showing up in the order I put them?
Hipcamp utilizes a feature called “Photo Order Optimization” for Hosts’ Properties. This optimizes the order of photos based on many factors, including how Campers who view your Property interact with your photos.
We find this tool helpful in converting views to bookings, but if you’d like to opt out, you may do so from your Property page at any time.
To opt out of photo optimization:
- Head to your Property tab
- Scroll down and click on Photos on the left-hand side
- Scroll to the bottom of the page, below your photos
- Toggle the button off next to Photo Order Optimization
- Click the Turn off button
