can't find photos that are in subfolders when using different computer

On my main computer, I upload pictures and put many into sub folders.  They all show properly on the computer I imported them to.   I believe they are all stored in the cloud with Lightroom.

 

However, when I sign into Light room both the online version and the desktop, it shows the folders, but doesn't show any of the pictures in the sub folders.  I do, however, see all of the pictures in the main "all photos' .

 

How can I see the pictures assigned to the various subfolders as on my main computer in which they were brought into the lightroom environment?

 

thank you!

Organsiation of Albums and Folders in the Cloud are not linked to how the photos are organised on your Hard Drive, you would need to replicate your folder structure (This differs from Lightroom Classic, but this isn't Cloud Based).

 

As far as I know, even if you use Local Tab in Lightroom (which does reference your HD) and then invoke 'Copy to Cloud' it doesn't replicate your folders.

Online folders are not really folders like the folders on your hard disk. The word 'folder' is a bit misleading for this reason. They are 'Album sets',  that you can use to hierarchically organize your albums.
