Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

On PatrickLynchPhotography.com I have the following structure
1) Galleries
     1.a ) Action galleries
           1.a.1) All Action
           1.a.2) Borders
                     1.a.2.a) Kite boarding
                     1.a.2.b) Skate boarding
                     1.a.2.c)  Surfing
                     1.a.2.d) Wind surfing
           1.a.3) Gymghana
           1.a.4) Miscellaneous
           1.a.5) Volleyball
     1.b) Alcatraz
The Template sets and galleries are set to use random images.

The issue is when displaying the Action Galleries index, sometimes I get an image from gymkhana as the thumb nail for borders as well as for Gymkhana.  It happens roughly 1 in 5 times, and I have a screen shot of it. That I will send.

Re: Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

The only way for album sets to show thumbnails when the index above is set to random is if you’ve placed thumbnails in the album set’s thumbnails/ folder.
So take a look inside the Border album set’s thumbnails/ folder

Re: Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

Rod, that is what I figured, but it isn't there and I have republished the entire tree.

Re: Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

Where are the thumbnails stored, I suspect  it may not be cleared, but thought I would check it.

Re: Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

I have gone through all of the photos  for Borarders in LR and there are no horse pics in any of the albums. I have replublished multiple times and I still get that error.

In the respective album set’s thumbnails/ folder.

Re: Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

Which countries do you not geoblock your site, and what is the purpose of geoblocking? The world-wide web generally handles security well enough without needing such blunt instruments.

Re: Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

Do you have any idea how to get rid of the unwanted thumbnail.
I have republished many times

Re: Nested Gallery indexes uses wrong thumbnail

As far as I know, the only way it can show up is if it's in the album set’s thumbnails/ folder
galleries/action_galleries/boarders/thumbnails/
Can you post a screen shot of what’s in there?

Republishing will have no effect on thumbnails inside an album set's thumbnails/ folder since Publisher cannot publish images to album sets.
