Zenfolio Uploaded not Working
« on: May 20, 2021, 08:54:04 AM »
Using PM6+ build 5820  on a 15" 2019 MacBook Pro running MacOS 11.3.1.

I tried uploading some images to my Zenfolio site using the build for the first time today. It does not work.

While a get a message in the upload dialog box saying it is ready, none of my folders for galleries appear in teh PM Upload dialog, as they did before. In trying "Reload", a message flashes in the dialog saying: "Error, unable to fetch items from server. Please check you connection settings." I have not changed connection settings from previous PM+ builds, when this did work.

I can get the files into Zenfolio by dragging and dropping the thumbnails from the PM+ Contact Sheet onto a Zenfolio Upload web page.

We're also unable to upload via the Zenfolio template.  We'll work on fixing it.

Mick,

We have fixed the problem but would like others to test.

This is a macOS build of Photo Mechanic Plus that should allow the Zenfolio upload template to work properly again:

https://www.camerabits.com/download/PhotoMechanicPlusR5859_d59d18d6.dmg

Please give it a try and let me know if it solves your issue.

Thanks,

-Kirk

Kirk,

Sorry for the delay, I was away from my computer until this morning.

I downloaded and installed the trail version. I did a quick upload of a few images to Zenfolio, and it worked fine. I did not have a chance yet to do anything else in PM.

Thanks for confirming the fix, Mick.

The build I linked is not a trial version.  It is a full build of Photo Mechanic Plus but hasn't gone through our usual battery of tests.

Yes, please do.

Thanks for fixing this, Kirk.

It wasn't me, it was another engineer, but I'll let him know you appreciate his efforts.

Thanks,

Re: Zenfolio Uploaded not Working on windows nor mac

Hello all,

I'm having the same problem, I using two laptops for my field editors one is windows and the other one mac os big sierra and in both of them I can't upload to zenfolio, before when I was using PM V5 everything was working and then Camera bits remove the option and that's why I upgraded to PM 6, I'm hoping they didn't remove this option so they can push users to upgrade to PM7 or some other version, I do not understand why it was working before and suddently there are errors.

I rely heavily on PM for many years and I already have my workflow but uploading to zenfolio not working it just adds more steps to our (pm users) workflow.

please advice.

thanks..

Jc

Jc,

The uploader in PM6 worked fine with Zenfolio until a recent update. They have now restored the functionality.

Jc,

I am using PM+ v 5859, and the uploader works with Zenfolio. What version do you have?

I can make a Windows build for you if you would like.  Do you have Photo Mechanic 6 or Photo Mechanic Plus?
