Hi, Jared.

Hmmm, photo was added properly and it's also in Memes album... I just did a test and photo was also added there.
How did you upload this photo... on certain album page?


- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

Steps to replicate:

1. Navigate to a group
2. In activity stream tab, use the postbox to upload a photo into an existing album


In this particular case, there were only two albums available at the time of uploading the photo. I uploaded the photo into the Memes album (which it is correctly uploaded) however JomSocial decided to just create a new album and place the photo as its cover. The photo is not in that new album but is correctly inside the correct one.

I have a suspicion that this bug occurs when a group does not currently have a "#groupname group photos" album at the time of uploading from the postbox.

Hi, Jared.

Ok, then I;

1. Removed that spare album
2. Joined group
3. Posted new photo in Meme's album

Result:

Photo was added to correct album.

Could we test this issue on group that didn't had "Group photo album" created?

Sure, go for it.

Question - Is there supposed to be a group album auto-created called "group photos" which will put all photos from all albums in it? If so and this is a new feature with the upgrade then perhaps everything is correct?

Hi, Jared.

I'll ask our developer to be sure... hmm... it seems I can't replicate it on other group. Can you?

Hi, Jared.

Developer answered:

No... the group photos album will be created when you first time upload the image from the post box unless you already have created albums and specifically select what album to upload images to.

4.1 will change this though.
