In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Thumbnails missing on latest albumsThanks for the update
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Thumbnails missing on latest albumsJust an update as I have been following the parallel thread from dorfdimpaler with similar issues
My thumbs had been set at 0644 for some time now, until they got changed to 0600 as reported above.
I installed the 9.1.09.005 update last night, created a new folder and uploaded some images.
I then checked the thumbs, which were showing, and in the file viewer I see they are now being set as 0755 again.
I saw in the changelog that there was a ‘Extended filesystem rights check/corrects’
In 9.1.08 there was a ‘Security fix’ – did this cause the issue we both had perhaps?
The latest update also seems to have fixed my dragged album order issue too.
Many thanks as always

In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Thumbnails missing on latest albumsAs a follow up, given that the previous thread received an identical response to this issue, could it be an update to this plugin causing the issue?
I am with Bluehosts (formerly JustHosts) – if the other person is with another host, it would be a big coincidence?
Security plugin
Akismet antispam, last updated 12/11/2025, that is all, so doubtful that’s interfered?WPPA updated on 2/3/2026 which was after the previous upload of images on Feb 10th where the thumbs were fine (filed with 0644 permission) and before this issue occurred (thumbs filed with 0600)
As I say, also the ordering of 2 sub albums via dragging hasn’t worked since the update also.

In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Thumbnails missing on latest albumsAh thanks. Curious! I looked in that folder and the new ones had 0600 permission and older ones have 0644 or 0755
I have changed all the new ones to 0644 manually and it resolved the issue. I will need to check with the provider why this might have happened.
On another note, the latest album I added, I ‘dragged’ the 2 sub-albums to preferred order, but when viewing on the site, they are in the wrong order!
I’ve tried dragging to a different order and back again, but no changeForum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Cannot create albumsThank you for such a quick fix – it is all working as expected again

In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Cannot create albumsJust to add to this. I’ve noticed that each attempt, whilst having the whirling circle, is showing a unique Album number, and if I go to the list and sort by ID, I have lots of albums that I was trying to create.
Of course, with the whirling circle, I could not change any of the information, parent albums etc, they all have a parent of —none—
I was able to Edit one and then the whirling wasn’t there, and I was able to add the parent/title etc. It just seems to be the initial creation that is experiencing this ‘whirling’ / stalled effect

In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Gallery without a title linkI have checked a few that are working correctly, and compared them to the one that isn’t.
All Albums, including the ‘faulty’ one, have identical settings
The Link type is ‘the sub albums and thumbnails’I tried changing it to others and then back to the original.
None of that made any difference at all.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Gallery without a title linkNo problem Jacob.
Clearing the Cache didn’t resolve the issue.
Creating a temporary page with that code made no difference, still ‘large’ title of the member, and no link type text

In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Gallery – link to other site?So, I added a ‘Flickr’ thumbnail type image to this members Gallery, and in the Photo detail, I’ve added the URL to his Flickr page, with ‘New Tab’
Underneath it says “If you want this link to be used, check ‘PS Overrule’ checkbox in Basic settings -> Links II, III”
However, when I look at those sections, it is not clear what I need to change to make the URL on the image work. I’ve tried a couple, but it still only opens the thumbnail image and doesn’t trigger the new tab to Flickr page.
EDIT: Strike that, I didn’t spot PSO was the overrule! It worked!

In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Gallery – link to other site?most of the other members are amateur photographers. He is a professional photographer and uses Flickr to upload his best pictures. He doesn’t want to repeat the upload of images, so he asked if there is a way to just have a link to his Flickr page.
unless it’s something in Album options, I cannot see how to achieve thisForum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Hidden settingsThanks Jacob,
I think the collapsed Album creation screen could be somewhat confusing for a new user. It certainly caught me out, and I’ve been creating albums monthly for a few years now.
I think it coincided with my previous post where you recommended that I re-installed the plugin and made me think something had been broken despite your assurances.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP Photo Album Plus] Slideshow stopped workingThanks Jacob,
It is indeed fixed by doing this.
Phew!
