Shared albums not on iCloud.com

Hi, can anyone tell me why shared albums don't appear on 'photos' tab on icloud.com? It shows albums but my shared albums aren't there.

Shared albums are not part of iCloud Photo Library. They are stored in a different section of iCloud.

You have to import the photos from your Shared albums to the library and add them to standard albums to see them in iCloud Photo Library at www.cloud.com, or publish the shared albums as a public webpage, then you can also see them online.

Thanks Leonie – I might be being dim here, but I'm still confused.

So let me explain further – I already have standard albums in Photos, as well as shared.

Neither appear on icloud photos.

So this is just a completely different place for sharing albums?
