Cannot find Publishing Service message [fixed], new Special Collections

[michael-wenyon]

1. I was getting the message 'cannot find Publishing Service' in response to clicking the buttons in Publish Service Set Up sub panel in the Piwigo Publisher in Lightroom Publishing Manager.

I had not put a name for my service at the top under 'Publish Service'. Once I did I got expected responses from the three buttons.

2. As a different issue, I have some Special Collections created by the plugin when it adopted my existing site/service (made with AlloyPhoto), in which I had photographs at the same level as further catalogs. These have worked OK.

But now I want to set up a new Special Collection with a mix of photos and sub-albums from scratch, and I don't see how to do so. If I simply 'Create Piwigo Album (Set for sub albums)...' it does not contain an album called [Photos in Name-of-Parent-Album] I am forbidden from making a normal album and naming it thus with square brackets.

How do I do this?

You can rerun the create special collections option again and it will create any missing ones, but I will look at whether/how I could automate creation when a new set for sub albums is added.

Add option to create special collections by automatically when a new published collection set is created
