Smugmug Publish Service issues

The set-up and initial sync worked great but sometimes it does not allow me to add Categories, Galleries and when it does, it will not let me to place LR Pics in it to publish...   I then went to my Smugmug and added some there ... but how do you then see the new SmugMug gallery?   Existing galleries were put in the LR publist Service under Smugmug fine and I can use these... There has to be some trick or something I am over looking?

In the Publish Services Tab right click on the SmugMug button and select Edit settings.
Under smugMug Settings check the box “Synch Hierarchy” and then click on the “Synch Now” Button.
Make sure your computer is connected to the internet.

  • Seems like SmugMug publish service clobbers my connection

    When I am uploading via a SmugMug publish service it only uses 80KB/s of my 500KB/s upload bandwidth, yet other computers on the network(DSL Router) fail to load webpages, sometimes even fail to find web servers(I assume DNS lookups are failing in this case).
    Has anyone else noticed this behavior? Is there anything that can be done? I don't see any QoS type settings on the router, priority settings, etc. I have installed some bandwidth throttling software and the network frees up when I set it below what LR is trying to use, e.g. a setting of 60KB/s is enough to free up the other computers and allow them to surf fine.
    I'm all for efficient uploads but if LR isn't allowing other devices to share the network while uploading that would seem to be a defect.

    If your net is that sensitive to an app then you have some other problem.  TCP/IP implementions are tuned to ensure that network applications are "good neighbours" to each other. You shouldn't need QoS tweaks for this sort of traffic. It is more likely your provider is doing traffic-shaping of some kind.
    Without basic network diagnostic details it is impossble to say what is going on, but it is important to note that all that Lightroom is doing is making API calls, letting the lower levels of the TCP/IP connection manage throughput and connection management, which includes managing traffic for multiple applications and consumers. This is pretty much how everything works, and always has.
    You should break the problem down into smaller pieces. How is your router sharing this single connection? Is the private side actually a router, or is it a switch? Is the switch working correctly? What sorts of connection affects are we seeing? Is the problem at the TCP or application level, or the IP level. If you suspect name resolution, why are exsiting caches also suffering? Or can you prove it is always new or expired lookups? What is the nature of the connection(s) created by Lightroom (netstat and tcpdump are your friends in this regard.)
    In reference to this last question, it may be that Lr is doing multi-threaded concurrent uploads, and the number of open connections is triggering some sort of traffic shaping heuristic. I don't know the details of the SmugMug API, but it is possible. Flickr, et al, pretty much handle uploads and replaces as a series of multipart POSTs. If SmugMug is doing something similar, then there is no way the app is at fault here. It is sending the POST parts as fast as it can through the standard OS TCP libraries, which will stop when the TCP messages it gets tell it to wait for bit and back off. The app spends most of this time waiting.
    Networks are subtle and complicated beasts, and the majority of consumer all-in-one routers out there, quite frankly, suck. But the take-away here is that the application is only one small part of the equation. TCP/IP is designed from the ground up to be resilient to hungry apps, which will accept throttling as normal operation. If that connection is not being throttled, then we need to look lower down in the network stack.

  • Smugmug Publish Service in LR4

    LR3 included a native SmugMug publish service, but it is missing in the LR4 beta.  Is there a way to enable it without using the jFreidl export plugin?

    It looks like that will have to come from Smugmug. The following quote is from the LR4 writeup by Victoria Bampton, who also posts a lot in this forum:
    It doesn’t ship SmugMug plug-in now because it’s easier for SmugMug to distribute updates themselves, rather than waiting for the next Lightroom dot release
    The best thing to do would be to go to Smugmug's support forum or email them and ask when they'll have a Lightroom 4 plug-in ready. Their support is pretty responsive.

  • "Publish Services" Issue in Lightroom

    I have been trying to use the "Publish Services" in Lightroom and keep getting this error: "?:0: attempt to index field 'exportSettings' (a nil value)." I have tried removing and reloading /installing the plug-ins, but they are all giving this same response. And ideas?

    A Google search for the error message suggests these two threads might be relevant:
    Error Message in Publish Services [Archive] - Lightroom Forums
    Publish services "An internal error has occurred (Page 1) — TTG CE3 Publisher — Community @ The Turning Gate
    The first thread suggests that your catalog might be corrupted, and you could fix that by creating a new catalog.  A better way of doing that (than what is described in that thread) is to do File > Export As Catalog.  Your original catalog will be left untouched, and all the catalog settings of all your photos will be transferred into the new catalog.   If after opening the new catalog the problem isn't fixed, you can delete that new catalog folder proper (the folder containing the .lrcat file) without affecting your original catalog.
    Before doing that, you might also try deleting your preferences: Resetting (or 'Trashing') the Lightroom Preferences file - Lightroom Forums.  Some information about publishing and export services is stored in the preferences file, and the file often gets corrupted.

  • Set-Up Publish Services Help - Facebook, Smugmug, Shutterfly

    Hi.  I'm relatively new to Lightroom 5 and am trying to set-up/configure publish services to be able to share photos on Facebook, Shutterfly, and Smugmug.  In all instances I am getting stuck when trying to authenticate my account on each of these social sites.  Basically I enter my log-in information and hit authenticate and then nothing happens.  Please advise what I am doing incorrectly.  Thank you!

    That's what happened to me. Did you get any answer from the Adobe "support"?

  • Using Lightroom publish service for either Flickr or SmugMug. I have many images with a keyword Madd

    Using Lightroom publish service for either Flickr or SmugMug. I have many images with a keyword Maddy. This frequently doesn't show up in SmugMug or Flickr. All my other keywords seem to work fine. Anybody experience anything like this?

    You only get one opportunity to set up the hard drive under publish and the folder cannot be changed unless you get a plug-in to provide a work around.
    However you could just create a generic publish folder - something like Photo Lab, or Print Job.
    But you could then right click on your publish folder and select “make target collection” - you will see the plus sign added.
    Simply highlight the photos you want to print and press B (the same as adding to a quick collection) and your Publish Services folder on your hard drive will be populated with the exports.
    The real problem is that you would need to edit the publish settings every time you required different dimensions etc (not sure possible). I use a similar system, which works well and I like how I can see what has already been published and what is still to be published but my prints are always the same size and resolution.
     

  • Bug/issue: Lightoom 5 Publish Services / 'Rename To'

    I believe I've found a bug (or at least a design oversight) within Lightroom 5 Publish Services (Hard Drive):
    I've created a Publish Connection that uses the 'Copy name' token in the file renaming scheme. However, I've found that if I change an image's copy name, and 'Mark to Republish', it won't use the updated copy name. It seems once an image is published within a Publish Connection, its export filename is forever locked. The only solution I've found is to delete & recreate the Publish Folder.
    system info
    Lightroom 5.6
    OS X 10.9.4
    MacPro

    Worth noting: the order of files outside Lightroom depends on how the device orders things (and no longer depends on Lightroom, once they've been pushed from the nest..).
    That said, alphabetic ordering is the most common denominator - most devices are capable of displaying in alphabetic ordering.
    Many devices will also display by date (usually capture date, but sometimes file-creation date..).
    If you are publishing repeatedly the same photos, it get's very tricky indeed, since Lr will not re-order already exported files or take them into consideration. If you are re-exporting the whole lot, then it's much simpler.
    Anyway, Lr5user-pt's method gives total control, but also has some drawbacks - you have to redo the copy names if/when you reorder photos (and then, re-export/publish all photos whose copy-names have changed).
    TreeSyncPublisher will map in-Lr ordering to capture dates (in exported file metadata) or file-creation dates (by "touching" exported file dates on disk), so if devices support such ordering (by date), then published photos will remain ordered upon republishing, automatically. Granted, you have to be conscious of some stuff, and read the documentation, and learn to follow the rules..
    (PS - a new version is coming out soon, which will have less "gotchas").
    Exporder is like TreeSyncPublisher except it renames exported files to match in-Lr order - even trickier to use though, but works dandy if you're willing to learn where are the hoops to jump through..
    The above mentioned plugins are free, and I wrote them - they only make sense if you will be re-ordering, or re-publishing changed photos.
    If you are just exporting or publishing one-time/all-at-once, then the simplest method is just to prefix an ordering number to the export filenames:

  • Unable to set up Flickr Publish Services in LR4.1

    I have tried on numerous occasions and end with the same result.  After I finish setting up the parameters in the Flickr Publish Services form I receive the "Lightroom needs your permission to upload images to Flickr"   I click on the "Authorize" button and then I'm taken to my account within Flickr.  Once i click on the "OK, I'll authorize it" button, I'm taken to:  http://lightroom://com.adobe.lightroom.export.flickr/#?oauth_token=72157630835444112-9ff8c 3faeafcb667&oauth_verifier=84249d3a8099d4dd,  where I get another pop up window that says "This web page cannot be displayed"
    No matter what I do I cannot get the publish service to work.  I had no issues with Lightroom 3.6 using the same procedure.  What has changed, or what am I missing?  Please help.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    You will need to have different configuration in each service.bat file as the SVCNAME must be unique across multiple instances, for example:
    JBoss Server 1 service.bat config:
    set SVCNAME=CCP_RC
    set SVCDISP=CCP - RequestCenter
    set SVCDESC=JBoss instance for RequestCenter
    JBoss Server 2 service.bat config:
    set SVCNAME=CCP_SL
    set SVCDISP=CCP - ServiceLink
    set SVCDESC=JBoss instance for ServiceLink

  • Can't set up Lightroom Publish Services, internal error occurs

    I'm trying to use LR 3's publish service for SmugMug.  I'm a little scared since 
    I have a large number of photos to sync up.
    When I click on "setup" on the SmugMug export services, I get a popup 
    error with this message:
    "An internal error has occurred: ?:0: attempt to index field 'exportSettings' (a 
    nil value)"
    Any idea how to fix this?
    The same message appears for any of the publish services (Flickr, Facebook).
    If I go the Publish manager, I can authorize the SmugMug account.  It then says it syncs the hierarchy, but afterwards nothing seems to have happened and the account is not longer authorized.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Mark, but that's not it.
    I'm not using Jeff's plugin, but the new built-in one for LR 3.2 and LR3.3.  I did try to install Jeff's plugin just before LR3.2 came out.  I uninstalled Jeff's version (or at least tried to - it doesn't appear anymore) before I ever used it.
    I'm not even to the point of exporting to SmugMug, I just click 'setup' and get the error.

  • Why is Lightroom 5.4 so slow in Publish services and Book module?

    I've been using Lightroom 5 for a few months now. I'm using the latest version (5.4) and have been experiencing extremely slow performance in two main areas:
    1) When in the Library module and I select (or scroll down to) the Publish services on the left it pauses for 10+ seconds before displaying the valid services. Changing between different services also takes quite a while. I now have the services minimised unless I need them.
    2) When in the Book module and I try and change a page layout the first time I select the drop down the cursor changes to a spinning circle for a while. Sometimes it comes up with the dialog saying Lightroom has experienced problems and I can either close it or wait. It usually recovers without any input from me. However, the first time I select the drop down it will close without me being about to select anything. I then have to press it again and wait for the layouts to load before I can scroll through the list. This occurs on every page. It takes probably 10-20 seconds to be able to select a new page layout. Applying the layout is very quick.
    I have upgraded my PC from a 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo with 4 GB DDR2 RAM to an I5-4670 with 16 GB DDR3 RAM and not seen much improvement in either area. In both configurations I used an SSD for the application and catalog. The photos are stored on a NAS but this has not shown any performance issues in browsing/editing photos. A review of Task Manager's CPU and RAM loading during these operations does not indicate the CPU or RAM is maxed out. I've never seen the RAM go above ~7 GB used and CPU loading (average across all 4 cores) is usually less than 50%.
    Generally the upgraded PC is showing a significant improvement in Lightroom's performance but these two areas are still painfully slow.
    Is anyone else experiencing these issues or have any ideas on what I can do to try and improve its performance??
    Thanks,
    Brett

    Hi Brett,
    I got the same issue and I am very frustrated about it.
    Its the same thing I experienced in Lightroom 4 and its still not fixed. I cant use the book module because of that. So BLURB is not getting my money. :-(
    I am waiting for that fix since more than a year, but Adobe says its a Problem which appears only for a small group of users.

  • Lightroom 4 Publish Services will not connect to Flickr.

    I have been trying to set up Flickr in Lightroom 4 Publish Services but get an error message when I press "OK, I'll Authorise it" on the Flickr authorisation page.  The message is "The address wasn't understood.   Firefox dosen't know how to open this address".   Can anyone help?

    Unfortunately, there isn't anything we can really do on our side, as the problem here is that the expected behavior is not occuring and the failure is outside of Lightroom itelf.
    Here is what is supposed to happen:
    1. Lightroom sends a request to your web browser to open an authentication page that is already built in to the host web site.
    2. You authenticate, which gives permission for your account information to be sent back to Lightroom. This substitutes the need to enter a user name and password. It's a hall pass for Lightroom to send your files to your online account.
    3. With authentication complete, the web page sends a token (similar to a cookie) back to Lightroom, which is then used whenever Lightroom needs to access the web servers to upload a file.
    The problem occurs in step three. The token is not being sent to Lightroom. Instead, the web browser is keeping it for some reason and attempting to open it. This shouldn't happen, but Lightroom doesn't have any control over your browser. Some suggestions are to clear your temporary internet files and cookies to see if corruption there is changing the behavior. Also, the Facebook app for Lightroom may have some issues, try deleting this from your Facebook account (within your account settings on the website).

  • Lightroom: Publish Services have gone corrupt

    When I was trying to sync 500px with Lightroom 5, all the Publish Services have initialised.
    SmugMug, Facebook, 500px, Revel, all have reset, and ask to be set up.
    When I try to set up any of them, I get an error promptly, as below:
    ?:0: attempt to index field 'exportSettings' (a nil value)
    How can I straighten out the app? Thanks!

    I am having a similar problem. Were you able to find a fix. Thank You.

  • Best way to publish a collection to multiple publish services

    Hi
    I post a collection of images to Facebook, SmugMug and to a Hard Drive folder for syncing with my iPhone.
    Currently I add all the photos I want to a regular collection.  Once complete I select all and drag to each of the three Publish Services Collections and hit publish on all three.  I've considered making the three Publish Services Collections Smart and telling them to include from the Collection that includes the name of my collection (really it would be helpful if there was a drop down list, but I digress).
    Is there a better way of doing this?  What is everybody else doing?
    cheers, Lewis

    I use export instead of publish.
    Granted, I'm not using the web photo services that don't support change detection without the publishing (or are there export plugins that do support change detection and removal of obsolete photos - true sync stuff like publishing except via export?).
    TreeSync - for hard drive export-based "publishing".
    WebPhotos - for exporting photos for web consumption.
    ExportManager - for one-click exporting of all changed photos to all endpoint destinations.
    I have requested a feature, as have other publish plugin developers, for a hook so that publishing can be started programmatically (via plugins). If this feature is added to the Plugin SDK, then export-manager will be upgraded and renamed export+publish-manager...

  • Lightroom 4.1: Publishing Service Flickr plugin; Using HTML in Caption field

    All,
    After hours of troubleshooting I have narrowed down a problem with an error message I’m getting when I try to export from Lightroom 4.1 using the Flickr Publishing service. The error msg is:
    Can't update this collection
    Could not contact the Flickr web service. Please check your Internet connection
    I have narrowed down the problem to my attempt to add basic HTML tags to the Caption (Description) Field of the Meta Data. This has worked perfectly well in all versions of Lightroom 3.6 and below (I didn’t try this type of export using Lightroom 4.0). I have also noticed that a simple page break, such as below, will also throw the same error:
    “Lorem ipsum @evansante.com dolor sit amet, consectetuer
    adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat veniam, quis nostrud exerci t”
    Flickr will recognize URL in simple text and format them properly so:
    “Lorem ipsum http://www.myurl.com dolor sit amet, consectetuer “
    Will work.
    Does anyone know of a work around that will allow including page breaks or HTML??? Thanks in advance - CES

    This bug, in a related way, has been noted by several users some time ago …
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/999503?tstart=30
    and was reported as a bug a month ago during the release candidate period …
    http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom_4_1_rc2_a_cr_or_lf_n_the_m iddle_of_a_caption_causes_failure_to_connect_to_flickr  
    Although the above mentioned bug is raised specifically in relation to “Breaks” in the caption text I believe it may be symptomatic of either generically poor XML information encoding by LR when talking to Flickr or poor / incorrect use of Flickr Api’s which cannot cope with trivial complexity in the caption field.
    – in either case it needs fixing with some priority in my opinion, but possibly the philosophy of the on-going Flickr plugin support needs fixing too.  
    The LR Flickr publishing service has not been maintained very well in my opinion even when fixes may sometimes be trivial.     Perhaps Adobe would do well to employ or contract with JF for such plugins in future.    I use the excellent SmugMug plugin as the yardstick by which I measure the Flickr plugin.
    A fix should also be treated as priority because the LR error message takes aim at the reliability of your internet connection which may cause some to erroneously try to chase down non-existent problems with a perfectly good infra-structure or OS / Firewall configuration – that is seriously bad advice for a caption related LR bug and has scope to seriously compound the problem for the user!  
    Adobe, you have a responsibility to fix this before people mess with their reliable setups.
    Sorry, I am not aware of any work rounds to your problem with this and suspect it may be a windows only problem (please confirm if not).   
    Although not entirely exactly as per your problem (I believe it is generically the same) you may wish to add your vote to the above mentioned problem report or raise a new one.
