Hi All,
Im using the LastUpdated value on albums to determine when an Album has been "updated" so I can requery for images, url paths, image order, etc..
Here is the issue: if a user changes the order of the images in the album, the album's updated field is not changed to reflect this... which means I am not really sure how to tell when an album's state has changed?
Does anyone know of a more reliable field to use? Reimporting every album, and every image is just not feasable for us as we update a few times per hour. Nor do I think I should be faking "album state" on my end by comparing at the individual image level.
The album should be the defacto entity to determine whether its state has changed yes? I must be missing something here...
Thanks in advance!
