FAQs
1. What is the Photo Feed in Zuper? The Photo Feed is a centralized gallery in the Zuper web app that compiles all photos and videos attached to your past jobs. It’s like your phone’s photo gallery but for work—making it easy to browse, search, and manage media without jumping between job records. 2. How is the media sorted in the Photo Feed by default? Media is displayed in a grid view, sorted in descending order by attachment date (newest first). This gives you a reverse-chronological timeline of your uploads. Use infinite scroll to load more as you go! 3. What filters can I use in the Photo Feed? You can narrow down results with these options at the top of the page:- Date Range: Pick a start and end date.
- User (Uploaded By): Select a team member from the dropdown.
- Tag: Choose one or more labels (e.g., “On-site Inspection”).
- Customer: Search and filter by client.
- Media Type: Toggle between Images, Videos, or All.
