View shared albums on lightroom.adobe.com

Several weeks ago I was able to view some shared albums on lightroom.adobe.com/shares followed by a bunch of letters and numbers. I want to go back and view more shared albums but can't get to a page showing what is available.

I did get to this page:

https://lightroom.adobe.com/shares/f2931ed482b04a499ccabc8a8127c453

But that is only for one shared album, and dropping the letters and numbers doesn't go anywhere.

Can anyone offer some suggestions?

Is it possible you were looking at a Portfolio Site?

Anyone with a Creative Cloud subscription can create a Portfolio Web site.

PORTFOLIO CREATE

Creating a Portfolio site is extremely easy by simply adding  Albums (one or many!)

This one I just created now-

I just found what I was looking for! Matt Kloskowski ran a "Fresh Start" series starting in early January. One of the projects was to show your best photos of 2021. People responding to this challenge posted a link to their photos in the comments section. Some of these were shared Lightroom albums/collections, while others used different methods to show their photos. That is where I got the links to the albums.

Thanks for your replies, but all is now good!

If it is your Lightroom Library, then you only need to log in at  lightroom.adobe.com/  and your whole Cloud Library is available in a browser.

Don't use the 'shares' web address (as you posted).

If it is not your Lightroom Library, then you can only open a 'Share' link that has been given to you.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I know what to do to view my own photos on line, so that is not the issue.

    My memory is a little hazy since I viewed the shared library several weeks ago; I believe that I followed a link that showed many such shared libraries, but I don't remember where I got the link. People were showing their small portfolios and I think many of them were "Best of 2021". These were not shared just with me but were available to anyone viewing (who probably had to have an Adobe account).

    I actually had two URLs for two different libraries, the only difference being the letters and numbers after ..../shares. I want to get back to the page where I could choose which library to view, but hitting the back button in my browser didn't do the job.
