Aubrey,

I can confirm that after removing the existing plugin and replacing it with yours at https://github.com/aubreypwd/wp-easy-photo-album/archive/master.zip resolved the issue for me!! I was able to find a work-around (using the built-in “Gallery” feature) but this plug-in does it better. Many, many thanks! Let’s hope the next major update to WordPress itself doesn’t break things again.

Cheers,
Paul

I’m running 4.5.2 – I believe this broke with the release of 4.5

What’s interesting is the Tribe calendar broke at the same time. A user was able to provide a patch for the code. In case it is helpful to you, here it is:

In the File_imprter.php in wp-content/plugins/the-event-calendar/Tribe/Importer folder i’ve added one argument in $query_args
see below
protected function find_matching_post_id( $name, $post_type ) {
if ( empty( $name ) ) {
return 0;
}
$ids=array();
$query_args = array(
‘post_type’ =>; $post_type,
‘post_status’ =>; ‘publish’,
‘post_title’ =>; $name,
‘fields’ =>; ‘ids’,
/*here*/ ‘suppress_filters’ =>; false // this is my change

Again, I want to thank you for taking ownership of this. It would be nice to have the plugin working again. I have a work around using WordPress’ “Gallery” feature, but the plugin was better.

Cheers,
Paul

Doesn’t work for me either.

I deleted the existing plugin and installed yours from the download https://github.com/aubreypwd/wp-easy-photo-album/archive/master.zip

New
Photo Album
Enter “Test album” in the title field
Click “Add one or more images”
Clicked four images with the CTRL key down
Clicked “Select Image(s)” button
No images came over into the album.

Thanks for taking ownership of this. I really appreciate it!

Cheers,
Pal

Indeed. User-beware. I should have noticed the last update was two years ago.

I will be searching for a replacement. Finding something suitable will be no problem. Has anyone found anything compatible with existing albums?

Cheers,
Paul

Bravo wgrabows, a gold star for you. Thanks for the code. It seems to have squashed the bug.

Cheers,
Paul

Thanks – good to know I’m not alone!

And of, course, Billy’s Blues Club *does* exist in my database – it looks like the apostrophe is dropped when the entry is stored.

There may have been a database upgrade with 4.5, so a roll-back would not be easy. I think I’ll hang tight.

Error logs are my friend. Mine indicated a database error. I went to PHP Admin and did a repair. All is well.
