Social Sharing functionality is inconsistent - Problem #2

mishenka

Another problem with social sharing functionality:
Regular gallery - all social sharing features are turned on, not password protected, gallery style is "Thumbnails".

Click "Share" button, select "Be Social" menu. A "Choose photo" flyout appears. Select any image. A new pop-up called "Be Social" appears. The selected image is displayed as a thumbnail at the bottom of the pop-up indicating that this image will be shared.

Now, if you do not want to click "Share" button, pretend you are viewing images in Lightbox view. Then you see an image that you want to share. There are buttons on top of the image. Click "Share". The same pop-up called "Be Social" appears. But the image that is displayed at the bottom of this pop-up (the image that YOU THINK you are about to share) is NOT the one that you just looked at. It has the FIRST image in the gallery. Pretty deceiving if I may say.

Any comments?

Thanks for the report. I've passed it on to our QA team as well.

May I ask for a current status of this issue, please?

Let me kindly make another attempt to bring your attention to this issue. MICHAEL BONOCORE!!!!!! Please, read! Please try it. It is 100% reproducible. Moreover, I just found out it was even reported somewhere in 2010. What good is the prominently advertised sharing functionality to such a popular platform as Facebook if it is totally unusable and confusing?

I have all 3 in my radar and will update you tomorrow Michael.

Thanks!

Michael, also with this one. I have found the bug report, and will keep an eye on the priority and fix date. I will update this thread when it has been assigned.
