    Hi,
    Thank you. we certainly plan to keep adding importers. Any developer if looking at this and want to work with us on any of the importers, please do let us know. We will assist in all possible ways too.

    Is it the plugin you are referring too.
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-album/

    Once we have got one plugin ready, It will be like understanding the schema/models of how other plugins store data and writing a connector for that.

    Hi To,
    Please do not be confused by the word “move” . It is all copy only. There is no destructive operation. We do keep a track of what was migrated but nothing more than that.

    Also, the current migrator is for “Bp Gallery” not BP album. I am sorry if there is any confusion.

    Hi All,
    Just wanted to give some update on this.
    I have got the basic migrator working.
    It is moving files, creating galleries and moving media.

    It will not move remote media from BP gallery as we don’t have an equivalent in MediaPress at the moment.

    There are a few small things remaining and I am working on that

    1. currently, the MediaPress API does not give the option to set date time for gallery/media creation, so all the moved galleries are getting assigned new dates. I am working on that.
    2. It is still not moving the media in proper order. The oldest media is moved as the newest. Fixing the above point should fix this too.

    3. Gallery & Media activity needs to be moved properly. It may need some work specially for gallery activity where multiple BP gallery media is published in activity. I am working on it and will have some solution soon.

    About my point regrading moving file vs copying, I have preferred the copy method. We copy the original file and regenerate thumbnails for MediaPress.

    I am hoping to have more updates soon.

    Thank yo
    Brajesh

    Well, Just had a look at the All media page from the dropdown. seems it is fixed too.

    I did not do any changes there, seems like restoring the gallery did it since all media were published to that gallery.

    Can you please check that?

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Ok, The widget areas are fixed too.

    On your site, in the widget section, you had selected “Sitewide galleries”. Currently, there was no sitewide gallery, only user galleries, so nothing was listed. I selected User Galleries from the widget settings and both media and gallery are listed now.

    Can you please point me to the page containing the shortcode, I will be happy to get that working too.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Mike,
    Wall gallery issue is resolved on the site. I am posting here so that it will help other too.
    You had marked a gallery as deleted from admin. It was sent to trash but not deleted. All your media were still there.

    If you delete a gallery from front end or delete the gallery from trash if deleting via dashboard only then gallery is deleted and wall gallery is reset.

    Since the gallery was existing, all photos were uploaded to it but due to its trash status, It was no allowing you to view it. I have restored it from trash. I will add this to our troubleshooting section of documentation today.

    In future, if you delete a gallery, please delete it permanently from dashboard or just delete from front end. I am looking at the widget issue now.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Mike,
    If it is not too much, Can you please provide me access to your site for 10-15 minutes? my email is brajesh@buddydev.com

    If the photo is giving 404, I can understand that. Either the component/status is not set due to some reasons. I just need to verify it for that particular gallery from dashboard.

    Hi Mike,
    Thank you for the prompt and detailed reply.

    3. Since you are able to upload right? The Wall gallery is created. The question is why is it not being listed. If wall gallery can not be created then you may not be able to upload from Activity wall.

    Can you please click on individual media in the activity and see if it takes to their single page(If you have lightbox enabled, you can click on the image in the lightbox). If it is taking, please check the gallery name and then click on your profile gallery tab to see if it is there?

    4. I am sorry I am not sure about this. Are you using shortcode to create All Media page? If yes, Please use the shortcode [mpp-list-media]. For reference, I have linked the shortcodes documentation page at the bottom of this post. If you are already using it, we will need to look further, please let me know.

    5. Can you please tell me if you are using gallery/media widget and what ssetings you have selected there(In the widget section)?

    I am sorry for the convenience and I hope that we can get it resolved quickly.

    Hi Mike,
    I am sorry for the inconvenience.

    1. If you delete a gallery it is gone for ever. That means, all the media and everything in it will be gone for ever. It is not recoverable.

    All Galleries(or gallery directory) can be easily created again. Yoou have already done that but I will repeat the step. Create a Page in WordPress Dashboard, then visit Settings->BuddyPress->Pages and select it for Gallery .

    3. New wall gallery will be automatically created when you upload from activity. Please try adding a few images and posting activity.

    4. Please note that the All Galleries or directory will only list “public” galleries. It won’t list private or other galleries.

    5. About widgets, The list depends on your level of access to the media/gallery. Based on the privacy, It will list all accessible galleries/media.

    When you see an issue like this, an easy way to verify that there exists galleries etc are by visiting Dashboard->MediaPress->All Galleries

    If it is listed there(It will list everything there), It will be available on the front end, if there are none, you will need to create some galleries(or wait for your users to create some)

    Please verify the things and let me know, I will be happy to help you further.

    Thank you
    Brajesh
