Collections on NightCafe

What are collections?

Collections are a way to organise your creations into groups — like albums or boards. Keep them private for your own organisation, or make them public to share curated sets of your art.

Creating a collection

Go to My Collections and create a new collection. Give it a title, and optionally a description, tags and a hero image.

Adding creations to a collection

  • When you create: select one or more collections on the create form before you generate, and new creations are added automatically.
  • From a creation: use the creation's menu and choose Add/remove from collection.
  • In bulk: turn on select mode in My Creations, select creations, then click Set collections.

Public vs private collections

Private collections are visible only to you and are perfect for organising your own work. Public collections appear on your profile and can be viewed by anyone with the link — to make a collection public it needs a description and a hero image. You can switch a collection between public and private any time by editing it.

Favouriting collections

Mark a collection as a favourite (starred) to make it easier to find in your collections list.

Sync to Pinterest

Connect Pinterest and turn a collection into a Pinterest sync collection. Any creation you add to that collection is automatically added to the linked Pinterest board. You can have multiple Pinterest sync collections, each linked to a different board.

What shows in a public collection

Some creations may not appear when others view your collection: archived creations are hidden on the collection page, and unpublished creations from other users won't be shown to anyone but you (and their owner). Your own unpublished creations in a public collection are visible to everyone.
