I cannot figure out (on the new style SM) how to find a specific photo by date range.

I used to be able to do it in the old SM.

Any idea?
It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    I know you have probably given me the answer I need, but I totally fail to understand on how to use it.

    Can you tell me more clearly how to find a photo within a date range, like in the old SM?

    The problem is that /date searches on upload date I think. It does not search on date taken. Although
    asked for many times searching photos for date taken has not been solved.

    On the /date page select the date range and hopefully you uploaded close to the date taken.
    This works the same as OldSmug.

    Hi George,

    Find by Date & Recent Photos -- SmugMug please fix!
    Shucks, I was all excited about the Date page (because it was one thing I found easy to install), but that quickly turned sour when I too tried some dates & realized it is completely going by upload date, and even dates that I cropped an old photo or edited it in some way. Now that is a real bummer. It makes the whole thing almost entirely useless... same buggy issues as "recent photos", and also a block set to essentially find "recent galleries"! Sheesh, SmugMug, can't we do something about this? If we want to find photos by date, we want to find photos that were taken on some date, not cropped on some date! Same with a recent photo or gallery... don't care to find a recently moved or cropped photo.
