    Hi, thank you for the adding of Chongqing Zoo gallery (Chongqing Zoo - Photo Galleries | ZooChat), but I have just found a small problem. When I add photos into the Chongqing Zoo gallery, they cannot be displayed in the "New media" page in the main page of Media; and when you open and enlarge the picture, the Previous and Back arrow buttons at the top-right of each picture cannot be used. Thank you very much!

    The "New media" search only show a maximum of 200 results - more specifically, the 200 most recently uploaded images, which currently takes us back only about 2 days.

    I've increased the search results to show the 500 most recently uploaded images (will monitor this to ensure it doesn't have a negative impact on site performance) - but that only takes us as far back as the 5th of Jan and so still won't show your photos from Chongqing Zoo in new media because they were uploaded on the 4th!

    Works for me?

    Thank you. I have just uploaded three new pictures in this gallery and it seems that it still doesn't work well? Though it is not a serious problem :p

    I have the same problem with the new Ghana gallery. The previous and next buttons don't seem to be working and images uploaded in said gallery don't seem to show up on the ''My media'' page. Thank you for creating the Ghana gallery, by the way! :)

    New media only shows those images you haven't yet seen.

    The system assumes that since you uploaded them, then you have already seen them - so it doesn't show your own photos in new media.

    If you just go to the gallery home page - Zoo Photo Galleries | ZooChat - you should see your photos, or alternatively click on the "your content" link at the top of any gallery page.

    As for the previous and next buttons - it may well be an indexing caching thing - it takes a little while for the post indexes to be rebuilt and cached for performance reasons and so you need to be patient. If you check back later, the next and previous buttons should work.

    I actually meant something different from what Baboon said, I was referring to the ''My media'' (or ''Your media''/''Your content'', as you mentioned above) page which is the page that shows all the images uploaded by the user. The images I uploaded in the Ghana gallery are not displayed on this page.

    I've got the same thing. I moved a bunch of my images from the UK>other gallery to the UK>Ventura Wildlife gallery, and now they've disappeared from the My Media page on my user profile. I moved the images a few days ago.

    Again ... it works for me?

    It's possible that you looked before the system had a chance to reindex everything and show the new stuff that had just been moved.

    Can you see it now?

    As you can see below, it still doesn't work for me. The Ghana pictures have been in the Gallery for about two weeks now so I think that should be plenty of time for the system to re-index everything. Besides, it does include stuff uploaded later on, such as the Rock sandpiper picture.

    And I've uploaded a number of photos to the new Christmas Island and Cocos Island galleries a few days ago, yet My Media still hasn't got them listed there.

    Okay, I've been able to reproduce this. Will investigate to see what is causing it. My guess is a permissions issue.

    Will let you all know.

    @baboon @KevinVar @Crowthorne @Hix ... can you take a look at your My Media page and see if the new images are showing up now?

    I found the issue and have fixed it (at least my tests did what I expected them to), so I'm hoping it's no longer a problem. All new galleries and countries added shouldn't have any problems.

    Thanks all for your help in tracking down the issue!

    Yes I can! It's all good now - thanks Sim!

    There's also a lot of new photos in the gallery for me to look at that weren't there this morning - like 384 of them!

    :p
