SmugMug Export Plugin

SmugMug Export Plugin is a user-friendly and practical piece of software developed to work with Adobe Lightroom, its purpose being that of providing you with the means of uploading your photographs to your SmugMug account, an online storage and sharing service for images and videos.

In terms of supported software, the plugin is capable of handling all version of Lightroom, starting from 2 and higher. Consequently, it can work without a problem both with the latest issue of the editor and with older versions, should you have been not upgraded yet.

Aside from allowing you to upload your pictures and videos from the editor to the online account, SmugMug Export Plugin is also capable of enabling you to manage the existing albums, as well as synchronize their hierarchy thanks to the Publishing Services component of Adobe Lightroom.

Moreover, you have the possibility of sharing albums with others while being able to restrict who has access to them, thanks to the password-protection option. The albums’ descriptions can also be updated with the help of SmugMug Export Plugin.

Despite its seemingly complicated usage, the utility is actually quite simple to understand and handle. Its setup can be performed just by following the installation wizard steps, meaning you do not need a whole lot of experience to get it done.

Once you have selected the files you intend to work with, you can log into your account, and then pick the target album from a drop-down menu. Alternately, you can create a new album, edit it, sort or filters its contents by date.

The ‘Export Options’ section allows you to choose whether to show a link when the upload is complete, so you can share it with friends. Similarly, you can define the overwriting rules.
