Something went wrong after migration

Ben · 2019-05-14 07:43:09

I have cleaned up those extra album sets and moved the two albums over, and cleaned up Publisher settings.
Authentication should now work with the API Key ending in 8. Restart LR for this API Key to work.

Is there anything else amiss?

Thank you.
I have not yet gone into LR. I have a new album to add to 2018/2019 and will let you know how it goes.

The Albums still do not sort according to the numbering scheme I have been using for years and the captions do not appear under the photos in each album. I turned on Metadata 2 for {filename} and that is not working either.

rod barbee · 2019-05-15 02:00:25

Paul, have you tried republishing the metadata yet?

paulpegg · 2019-05-15 02:03:16

Ben,

I tried to rename one of the September 2013 Albums that are actually 2015 sets and got this again:

Something went wrong
rename(/home/corve3/public_html/lesm/galleries/04-2015-events/,/home/corve3/public_html/lesm/galleries/04-2015-events/sept-2013-event-actuallyl2015-set): Invalid argument in PublisherHelper.php on line 378

Ben,

Can't delete any of the empty albums or those that contain duplicates of the 2015/2016 set > says only LR can do this but the do not appear in LR, at least in the current catalog which is LesM 2018-2019. Do I have to create new catalogs for each of the Backlight sets I created on BL2? Should they show up automatically in LR? If so, they are not appearing anyplace for me.

Is there a way we can talk on the phone about this? I could call on skype if that works for you. There are so many things that are wrong, or at least I can't access them to delete or modify them.

More: I tried to Hide September 2015 Album from set and got the same message:
"Something went wrong
rename(/home/corve3/public_html/lesm/galleries//,/home/corve3/public_html/lesm/galleries//september-2015): Invalid argument in PublisherHelper.php on line 378"

That is another issue. I went into LR and the new sets do not appear under publisher. I opened the local set for 2018-2019 and then the latest album and there is no place to push the metadata, only republish.

I created a Test set and a Test April 2019 Event and published them. They worked and the captions appear at the bottom of the photos in the gallery. So I am not going completely mad, I know it will work some day!!!!

Check out Our Events>2018-2019 Events at the bottom is 2019 April TEST.

rod barbee · 2019-05-15 03:04:49

The setting to republish only metadata is in the Lightroom Publisher settings. Double click on the TTG Publisher instance for the site and the Settings dialog will appear. Check the box: "Push metadata without updating existing photos" and save.
Select the images in the album. Right click and choose Mark to Republish then publish

paulpegg · 2019-05-15 03:56:47

Rod,
When I open a CE4 set and link the new Publisher I get a message like "You have changed to setting for 250 photos. Republish or not (or something to that effect)". Should I say yes and them em rip? Where will they go?

It turns out they didn't go anyplace that I can find on the site. I did change to push metadata only and managed to update the 2018-2019 Events Albums.

I cannot find the catalogs for the prior seasons so am stuck unless I can find the metadata on the server. Where is it stored in CE4 albums? I browsed in CuteFTP but can't find the actual data.

you can set all of them to republish or click on no (or whatever it is) and then republish as needed.
They will still be in the albums, they won't be published anywhere else. And if you're just pushing metadata, that's all that will be republished.

Ben,

In the 2015/2016 Events set there are multiple nested sets entitled September 2013 Event. These are actually duplicates of the 2015-2016 Events set and albums therein except the last one which is empty. Please deleted them all.

Can you get the sets and albums to sort according to the numbering system that is already there through the numbering system i have been using for years?

Thanks for all you have done. We are getting real close.

1. I have fixed the metadata. These were stored in an old format of metadata1 and metadata2. I've renamed the fields to metadata_one and metadata_two. I can now see it showing at http://lesmarmitonsnj.com/galleries/03_ … 017-March/

2. Can you provide a specific example of one set of albums that is not showing as you expect, and the order that you want them

I have deleted three from there.

Ben · 2019-05-15 06:33:46

Here's where we're at today. All albums left at http://lesmarmitonsnj.com/backlight/pub … _albums/1/ have at least some photos in them. Captions are back. Remaining issues from what I can tell are that the ordering isn't correct, and that LR can't work with some albums. Is there anything else?

Any zombie albums in LR will remain as so. Those that appear to be unlinked between LR and the server. It looks like at some time in the past you've had glitches on the server that have resulted in multiple albums being created on the server with different IDs. If the IDs stored in the LR album don't match those on the server then we can't match them up. In that case, if you need to maintain those albums to add new photos or make other changes, that will need to be done through the Backlight admin. I haven't yet had time to look at the set of Album IDs from LR. I'll have a better idea when I can sit down and compare the sets of Album IDs between LR and the server.

Sorry, but I don't have the capacity for a phone call or Skype. I'm working full time and my support is limited to odd hours, and train rides.

paulpegg · 2019-05-15 06:49:43

The way I had thsi setup was that each album set displays the latest album at the upper left corner. I numbered them 09-September, 08-October, 07-November, 06-January, 05-February, 04-March, 03-April, 02-May and sometimes there would be an 01-July. They would sort in descending order.

The captions now display under the thumbnails but not in the slideshow. See the albums in 2018-2019 Events for an example. I got those to work today.

We are slowly getting this done. Once these are totally correct they will remain static from now on. My next chore will be to try to recreate the older ones from CE3. I expect that will be totally manual and require me to find the old photos and extract the metadata from those files somehow.

Thank you again for all your attention to this set of problems. I doubt you have many like me.

Don't know if you have noticed, but the articles page doesn't contain the links that you had in your CE4 version.

paulpegg · 2019-05-15 07:16:08

I know. That is the least of the problems I have been dealing with. I have to go in and correct the links. The Events have absorbed my total consciousness (and a lot of my sleep time) for almost a week!

Thanks for the heads up. All it took was to copy the old page into Notepad++ and then copy that back into the new page. That preserved the links as I originally had them.

I’ve fixed the order to be reverse-chronological. This was done by editing each Album Set in Backlight and setting the ordering to 'slug'.

The Publisher section of Backlight's admin has all of things settings that can be found in LR's Publisher module, so it’s a good place to make changes like that.

I’ve fixed the metadata for full-sized images. That required renaming a further two metadata names.

FYI: Some links are not working (anymore).

paulpegg · 2019-05-15 07:43:12

Yeah, some of them are a bit old and have probably died on the web. I need to go over each of them and get rid of the dead wood.

Thanks,

Ben,

I can't find the place to set the full-size images metadata. The tokens for Albums is set for Caption and Copyright but what is displayed in the various sets is inconsistent.

2018/2019 randomly shows caption and copyright or filename in both album thumbnails and slideshow
2017/2018 shows caption and copyright in album thumbnails but only copyright in slideshow
2016/2017 shows caption and filename in album thumbnails but only copyright in slideshow
2015/2016 shows caption and filename in album thumbnails but only copyright in slideshow

That setting is in the album template under Photo Presentation > Captions.
After making any changes you’ll need to republish the image metadata

I know. And it is set for {Caption} but the result is inconsistent as i spelled out above.

The metadata is there because it appears with the thumbnails but does not display properly in the slideshow.

are you referring to your copyright appearing in the Caption area rather than a caption in some albums?

have you tried republishing those particular albums?
