Only 300 photos after sorting #20

Open LouisPlard opened 3 years ago

LouisPlard commented 3 years ago

Hello, Thank you for this nice plugin, that google does not want to implement since 2011.

An annoying issue is that I can only see 300 photos after sorting with the extension, while my album contains 433 photos. In the albums list page, it still indicates 433 elements, but when I open the album I can only see the first 300. There is no error when sorting.

Is there any easy way to fix this ?

Hi. I tested on 555 photos album and 438 photos album. But could see all photos of both albums. Could you test other albums?

(Note: This extension send URL request at final step. It's equal inputting album URL to address bar.)

I tried with four new albums (~400 photos each) and everything worked fine. I also recreated from scratch the old album, and it worked.

I guess there are some bugs if we sort an album that was already sorted by google, but everything is fine when sorting the album just after adding the photos.

Thank you again for this !

I've just had the same problem today. Sorted multiple large albums, and afterward only 300 photos were left in the album. That's quite scary.

The photos were still all in the library (phew...), so I tried to add them again to the album, which didn't work. Still only 300 photos. I then added all photos to a new album, used this Chrome Extension, and then it worked.

Now after some waiting some of the old albums, that had only 300 items at first, also caught up, and had all items again. Note that some only showed the correct count in the album overview, but when selecting all photos inside the album it was still only 300. So that didn't work for all albums. Some I really had to re-create. (or maybe I'd have to wait longer?) Maybe from a certain size, Google backends are slower to update or something. Really odd.
