Why not make the tests of validation before converting the pictures and trying to send it?
What does the error say? In many cases a "potential" error cannot be detected in advance.

It is because I manage private albums.

1- Creation of the album in LR
2- The album passes from public to private in Piwigo
3- I publish the LR pictures towards Piwigo

I do not manage yet to find the good method to make my additions in albums deprived since LR. Especially when the album is created since LR…

(Sorry for my bad English)

When I move in album in a albums set, the change is not carried out in Piwigo.
Can that be possible in a future version?
The plug-in is supposed to propagate the update once you re-parent and album. I'll have to test this and see if there is a bug.

It is not a bug. It is right comfort lol
Thus not of panic. If the tree structure were respected it would be better but not either essential.

Hi alloyphoto,

Currently, when the properties of pictures are changed (metadatas or parameters developpement), the picture should be republished.

As a result it is as if one erased the first version to add a new picture :-(
One loses the ID in Piwigo as all that is associated with this picture.

Why not to propose an option during the publication to know if it is necessary to update:
1) The picture with its metadata (without losing the ID).
2) Only metadata of the picture (without losing the ID).

There it would be really very flexible is the updates of our very fast and effective pictures!

Thank you :-)

A new beta version is available (version 1.2.0 BETA).
Changes in the new version:

* Fixed the issue with re-parenting to a previously unpublished album or album set
* Fixed the issue with navigating to an unpublished album. Instead of a "URL not found" error, now you get a message explaining that the album has not been published.
* Now you can create several Piwigo publish services, each with a unique combination of hosting parameters (Server/Username/Password)

The current behavior is driven by the concept of published collections. Keep in mind that published albums are mirror copies of collections in Lightroom. You can't have two versions of the same photo in a collection unless you create a new copy (physical or virtual) of the photo. Same applies to published collections - online albums cannot have two versions of the same photo. You must take care when changing metadata or develop settings of photos that have been published. If you don't want to cause your photos to be re-published, you should create new virtual copies and make your changes on those.

Here is a hint, if you want to know what collections include the photo you are about to edit, right-click on the photo and choose "Go to Collection". You will see collection names (and their type) in the child menu (see the screenshot).

I am of agreement with you but I do not work with virtual copies.
My photographs in Lightroom are my photographs in Piwigo.

Thus if I change something in Lightroom, I would like to see also appearing the change in Piwigo but not republishing a new photograph each time!
For example, with pLoader, it is possible to update ONLY the metadata. If I change the title and the description of my photograph in Lightroom, I would like that this change can be seen in Piwigo even if the photograph is already on line. Thus to update only the metadata.

It is always Lightroom which will be the base of work. Piwigo is only used to post photographs.

For example, once the photograph _img_0465 is on line, it has its own ID.
If I change the title and author (IPTC) in the photograph since Lightroom, I do not see why I must republish the same photograph and lose the ID.

Hi Vladimir,

Does the external module, function at home with several users?
I am not the only one not to be able to make function accounts “visitors” whereas one can logger with the external module.

It would be necessary that there is a warning on the page of configuration of the module when one connects oneself with an account which is not “Administrator” or “Webmaster”.

Thanks ;-)

I think this question should be addressed to the Piwigo team as this concerns shared access to the Piwigo hosting service.

Hi Gotcha,
I understand your idea, but unfortunately this is impossible, for many reasons.
First of all, it is Lightroom that makes the decision whether a photo needs to be re-published. It doesn't matter what specifically triggers the "edited" flag to be set. That could be a change in the photo's development settings, or a change of metadata attributes - Lightroom simply marks the photo as "edited". If the photo is included in any published collections, Lightroom also puts the photo in the "Marked for Republish" basket. Now, when you click "Publish", the plug-in doesn't know why the photo has been marked as such. And even if there was a way to know what triggered the flag, there is no way to upload just the metadata.

Indeed, if it is Lightroom which decides, it is not ideal.

I will see with Pierrick (plg) how the API work because with pLoader it is possible to update only the IPTC.
And I want that your external module makes the same thing so that it is effective :-)

All those which have an account on a gallery can visitor the gallery. But all the accounts do not have the same statute.

To reach the administration of the gallery, it is necessary to have the statute of “Administrator” or “Webmaster”.
It is thus obligatory to make a checking at the time of connection to know the statute.

Why not try to reach ./admin.php ?
If the answer is good, then the account is valid, if not, the account is not valid.

Pierrick (plg) is informed.

Version 1.2.0 (BETA) Build #326 is available for download.
In this update:

* Added a check to ensure that the server is ready to accept uploads from the user.
* Added validation of the Image Sizing settings. The plug-in will issue a warning if the dimensions of rendered photos are outside of the 500 - 10000 pixels range.

Version 1.2.0 (BETA) Build #345 is available for download.
In this update:

* Fixed issues with using multiple publish services for Piwigo.

alloyphoto · 2011-01-27 21:24:24

Version 1.2.0 (BETA) Build #347 is available for download.

Now updating keyword tags will automatically mark affected photos for re-publishing.

NOTE: If you have an earlier version of the plug-in installed, you must modify the Piwigo Publish Service settings for the fix to take effect. Simply go to the Lightroom Publishing Manager, log-in and check/un-check any check-box - this will enable the Save button. Click Save.

I just come to say that it work fine.

Thanks Vladimir.

Hi alloyphoto!

In first time, thank you so much for your wonderful publication service!
Now my problem, haha.

No seriously, may I do something wrong but my Album Set aren't push on my gallery.
I saw that you correct the re-parenting issue so I recently :
- download the latest version (v1.2.0 b347)
- delete everything in my Piwigo publising service
- delete everything on my Piwigo gallery
- and try again from scratch.

I added an "Album Set" in LR and clicked on "Publish".
I went watch if a new category was created ... nothing.

I added an "Album" in LR in my previous "Album Set" and clicked on "Publish".
I went watch if something was created ... nothing.

I added some pictures in my "Album" and clicked on "Publish" and LR asked me to fill some information about my "Album" that I filled.
I went watch if something was created ... and yes it was.
But just the category "Album" and the pictures inside.

So I have some question (cause may be I missundertand something):
- Do the "Album Set" exist only in LR to organize our "Album"?
- How am I suppose to do to have a category on Piwigo that correspond to my Album Set?

Thank you very much in advance, and sorry for my english.
And More that everything thank you for your awesome work on this service!
