Watermark doesn't show on large image

Hello!
Hope someone can help with this problem:

I've got two copies of the plug-in running:
One for galleries that require a watermark and one for those who don't, because it's a setting in the plugin, not in the albums as far as I know that makes the watermark appear on the large images.

Until the other day this worked perfectly, but now the watermark doesn't show on large images anymore, no matter which of the copies I use.
Tried making a new copy of the plug-in but this didn't work either.

Anyone any idea where this goes wrong?

Thanks!

Re: Watermark doesn't show on large image

Are you saying that images that were previously watermarked are no longer watermarked? Or that new images are no longer watermarked?

If you uncheck the Watermark checkbox in the Publisher instance and then republish the images, new, un-watermarked, images could be uploaded. This depends on some other settings in Publisher, like the "push metadata without updating existing photos" option.

The first thing I would try is republishing the images in an album that are supposed to be watermarked. In Publisher set up, make sure that the Watermark option is checked and that you've chosen a watermark.
Make sure that neither the "Push metadata..." or the "Publish thumbnails without updating other renditions" options are checked.

Then make sure that in the album set up, under the Features tab, that Watermark to apply is set to "Managed by Lightroom"

If you want to manage the watermarks on a per album basis, then in each album, under the Features tab, choose your preferred watermark. If you do this, it doesn't matter what the setting is for Watermarking in Publisher set up.

Re: Watermark doesn't show on large image

Thanks for your reply!

To clarify: New images I upload, without me changing anything in the publisher setup, are no longer watermarked. Images that are already on the server still have a watermark.

I've made two versions of the plugin so I don't have to check each time I upload if the watermark is on of off. But importing the settings from a simular album could be an option as well I realise now. (Only been using it for a couple of weeks ;-) )

Going to check the things you mentioned in your reply and will let you know. Thanks again!

Re: Watermark doesn't show on large image

Are you using a graphic watermark? Has the file moved from where Lightroom expects to find it?
