A Gallery Vanished in Backlight2

Hi I was working on adding some Galleries to galleries top-level directory and removing some from another top-level directory when I noticed one of my original galleries which I did not touch vanished. It is still in LR and when I republish LR thinks the gallery is still there but does not show up in Publisher on Backlight.  Everything else is working including the new galleries I added.

Here is the link to the missing gallery page: https://www.keylightphotography.us/galleries/rspcrgglry

I can send Ben my access information; I am hoping Ben can take a look at this and let me know how to fix it or maybe he can fix it.

Thanks,
Michael

Re: A Gallery Vanished in Backlight2

did you happen to change the slug? Put it in a different top-level gallery?

If you're comfortable with it, you could directly access the database. (Back it up first by downloading the backlight/data/ folder to your computer.)
In the main Backlight Dashboard under special links is phpLiteAdmin. Click on that. The password is admin.
On the left, under Change Database, click on Publisher
In the Publisher box below the Change Database box, click on Album.
Look through the table to see if you can find the album with the slug rspcrgglry

If you find it and delete it, then you should be able to republish.
If any of that makes you squeamish, then you should probably just sent Ben your access info

Re: A Gallery Vanished in Backlight2

Already sent Ben my access stuff. BTW, I am not squeamish as I have lots of experience with this kind of stuff, But, I would prefer Ben take a look at it first maybe he might find something to prevent this in the future.  Unless Ben does not have the time then I will do it. By the way, I did happen to change the slug from crgglry to rspcrgglry but that should not have removed it from Publisher.

Re: A Gallery Vanished in Backlight2

I don't know if it will help, but have you tried clicking on the Update Album Files link in the main dashboard?
