Don: changeSetting AlbumID= command not working

kansaschuck

Don, I hate to be a pain but I haven't seen any traffic on this issue.
David said he was going to ask you to look into this. So I'm going to repost this issue. The command is very important to my project and I was hoping to hear some news.

---

I've been trying to get the changeSettings AlbumID= command to work. What I want to do is to evaluate photo info and move to an new gallery from the inbound email gallery.


Has anyone had any success with this command? I'm ending up with my pics lost in some gallery neverland. The movement is critical to my project. Any advice is appreciated! Not sure how to proceed. I'm fairly new here.




Below is the info from a past attempt.


rsp stat="ok"
method>smugmug.images.changeSettings
result>1
/rsp

Thumbnail of pic being move remains visible in orginal gallery after gallery switch. When you click on thumbnail you go to link:


With the message "
This is a brand new gallery with no photos."

In the destination gallery I do not see the photo.


This exercise is an attempt to move from EMAIL to a secondary gallery.

My main testing is with PHP 1.2.0 Command below:
https: // api.smugmug.com/hack/php/1.2.0/?method=smugmug.images.changeSettings&SessionID=#&ImageID=X&AlbumID=Y&output=php.

Chuck,

Unfortunately, Don is a busy guy with a lot of stuff to do. Believe me I have tried to schedule some time with him to sort these issues.

Below is the email I sent Don on this issue.

Cheers,

David.

David,

Thanks for helping work the issue. I understand there can be lots of fires to fight. I'm wrapping code up on another section and was hoping to jump on this next. Ok... well....then I think we'll start development and testing on another platform/service and then adjust the code for Smugmug when the API is ready. I hope you can get to it soon.

Thanks,
Chuck
