Symbiostock Beta Test - Bug Stomping Thread.

No bug reports? Serious ones anyway? Very special day. Looks like I can quietly focus on minor things while Msg gets its forum back

Maybe not a bug, but what for is "profile" link under image? It leeds now to the same image page...

Modify in your User Area - you know, where you set up your user wordpress info.

This is awesome. I'll approach some of the smaller things now, and enjoy a little quiet time building in better search query if there are no more monster bugs.

In the meantime people will enjoy working on their sites, uploading, and getting strong now.

[cidepix]

looks pretty good so far.. apart from the remaining unfixed bugs from the OP...

 plus + the image processing issue which makes browsers go blank

I'll keep that in mind. If we are talking about the same thing, this is an important attribution link that is recognized by search engines to attribute the work to you. The markup is special so it works that way.

I think this may be a bug.

If you search for a keyword tag that is not in your portfolio but a network member has this keyword tag - the host site produces zero results.

Example on my site search: Etretat
This tag is not in my port but 'Travelling Light' has it in his - I can't trawl out his pic from my site.

Quite crucial for finding more obscure long tail files.

we shouldn't remove the link.. you can just make it point to your about page and it will look nicer..

that link is very important imo..

So, if it can help somehow, I let it stay for a moment

agree. Leave it (at least as an option).

I have reported that one about a week ago. Just got buried. I, too, think that one needs to be addressed.

[MicrostockExp]

Yes I mentioned it a while ago I think it will be good to see all search results

I don't have any sales yet. Does that count?

Seriously though, this is a great platform and I am suprised how quickly it's come together. I'm quieter now since I don't have much value to add, but I'm still checking the forums every day. Keep it up!!

cclapper - I had that problem a few themes ago, was deleting them individually but no luck. Then this worked...Process your images, you'll be left with a list of those errors. Use the Select all tick box to select all errors, then in the Bulk edit drop down, do Move to Trash and apply. This worked for me, whereas individually deleting them didn't. Don't know why.

Cool, thanks! I am getting ready to upload some images now, so will try it out.

Yep, link needs to stay.

as a future addition, perhaps if only a few results (or none) are found, the user can ask to continue a wider search across more symbio members

Well, I didn't get to try it out after all. Everything processed perfectly. I did have one hang, on the first file of five. Just went to another screen, reuploaded and then they all processed OK.

Probably the tiniest bug ever, just pertaining to themes...when trying to put in my own bg image in the child theme it wasn't working, I looked at the original styles.css in the parent theme and noticed the single quotes are missing around the url to the background image.  One I put them in it was all fixed!

[cascoly]

in process images it says:

NOTE: Images without IPTC data (at least title and keywords) are always saved as drafts.

I've got several more examples I can send where it's not reading iptc data that is there & allowing these images to be published

[klsbear]

This one is not really a bug but a small request.  Could we have an "update latest oops - make that 'related' images" link in the pop-out menu for Symbiostock images panel?  I keep forgetting that I have to manually update that and having the link in the menu would be a reminder.

hmmm - might be a bug in here now too.  I added 5 images today, tried updating twice and got the e-mail telling me 80 images were processed but the new images from today are not showing.  Same oops - I was mixing up related and latest images as to which needed the manual update, but I am seeing that my Latest Images are not updating to reflect newly added images.  It still shows yesterday's additions.

[cascoly]

when network search results are shown, and there are more than 5 images, might have a link "search more from this site" opening to new window.  otherwise it's not clear there are more than 5 results (if you have the actual number of results that could be displayed too)

The only problem I'm having is with the watermark on vertical images extending too far on each side.  It's slightly cut off on each side.  No big deal.  Everything else is running very smoothly.  I must say Leo has done an outstanding job with this. 

[cidepix]

I sorted that out with a 590x590 watermark.. it is perfect now..

Ok.  Thanks.  I'll try it.
