View hidden photos
At the very beginning of the introduction of the photo hiding function, resourceful users found some vulnerabilities
with the help of which it became possible to view private photo albums. Among them the most popular were:
- view by user id;
- using the page source code and address bar;
- special sites that provide this opportunity;
- programs (often these were dummies with a virus inside).
The VKontakte administration respects users' wishes for privacy. Therefore, the discovered holes were closed in a timely manner. Almost all of the above methods do not work at the moment. In addition, today all these methods are illegal and you cannot view private VKontakte photos. Those who want to invade someone else's privacy can be held accountable.
Every active Internet user has an account on the VKontakte social network. The VKontakte website allows you to perform many actions, and one of them is posting photos, with the ability to customize display. This article will contain instructions specifically about hiding photos from your VKontakte profile. There are many reasons why you need to hide, and everyone has their own. You can hide photos both from strangers and from friends, i.e. they will only be visible to you.

Hide the photo I was tagged in
If you want to hide the photo in which your friends tagged you, then to do this you need to go to the “Settings” section, which is located in the upper right part of the drop-down list. Then go to the “Privacy” section. There, opposite “Who sees the photos in which I was tagged,” select the desired privacy.

On the left side of the menu list, select “Photos”. All photos and albums will open. To hide an album, you need to hover your mouse and click on the pencil icon. In the page that opens, in the section who can view, select the desired privacy and click “Save changes.”
At the moment there is no way to set privacy for individual photos, you can get around this by creating a separate album, and calling it, for example, “Hidden Photos”, and setting it the necessary rights, and then uploading there the photos that you want to hide.
Hide photos from the main page of VKontakte
Once on your page, hover over the photo. A gray cross will appear in the top corner and click on it, thereby you will hide it from the main page.
As already written above, a separate photo cannot be hidden; to do this, you need to create an album with the necessary privacy settings. Delete images that are visible to everyone and re-upload them to a new album.

How to close an album in contact?
If you have uploaded your personal photos to contact and created photo albums, then you may have a question about how to close the album in contact and thereby hide it from prying eyes. Fortunately, this is now possible, and the contact provides a wide range of interpretations of the availability of your album for viewing by different groups of users.
- In order to make an album private, you need to go to the page with all your albums. They are viewed in the form of small windows with the main photo.
- In the upper right corner of each of these windows you will see a small button with the image of a pencil; if you hover over it with the mouse, the words “Edit Album” will appear. By clicking on this button, go to the editing menu. Here you can change the album name, description, and also set privacy.
- Next to the question “Who can view this album?”, you will see a drop-down menu. Now choose who can see photos from your album: only friends, no one, that is, only you, friends and friends of friends, you can limit viewing to one or more users, and so on. It is possible to create a certain group of your friends, who, for example, are your colleagues, and make access to the album open only to them.
- Select the option that suits you best from this list. Remember that only those groups of people to whom you have allowed access will be able to view closed albums in contact. In the same way, you can configure who can comment on your photos.
You can also make photos in which you have been tagged by your friends private.
- To do this, go to the “My Settings” menu, select the “Privacy” tab.
- In the drop-down list, find the question “Who can see photos with me”, now, just like in the privacy settings of the album, select the people who can see the photos in which you were tagged.
You can change your privacy settings for viewing photos completely free of charge and every day. Unfortunately, you can only hide the entire album; individual photos cannot be hidden. But only those people you really trust will be able to view closed albums in VKontakte.
How to attach an album to a post
There should be no difficulties with such an operation; the procedure for posting an album on a group wall or on your page is almost identical:
- Copy a link to a photo album. You can do this by going to your photos, then to the required album . Then place the cursor in the address bar, perform the key combination Ctrl + A , and then Ctrl + C (In other words, select everything and copy).
- Create new entry on your page, or in the community, then paste the link using the key combination Ctrl + V.
- Send a post . The system itself will make an album from the link.
It is worth noting that after a picture with a link to a photo album appears in a post, the original text link can be deleted ; this will not be reflected in any way on the posted news.
