Hi dear Shotwell community: It is a real pleasure for me to inform you that once all the offending pictures names had been modified in order to follow a strict adherence to an ASCII-only format (removing ill-characters like "ñ" or "é") all the photos in the collections from Shotwell are correctly uploaded to (and appear instantly in) the Photos section of my Facebook account.
With the names of the pictures changed to an ASCII-only format, Shotwell Connect is working like a charm :-) I would like to thank all the Shotwell community (developers and users) for you very well appreciated software and helpful guidance. Thank you very much Kind regards Erasmo ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Erasmo Perez <[email protected]> Date: 3 December 2010 13:35 Subject: Re: [Shotwell] Today, Shotwell can not upload photos to FB To: [email protected] Hi Lucas: You may be right, because just before I leave house for work I made a last test uploading another pic and Shotwell Connect worked, but the original pic I intended to upload continued being not published by FB. I then suspected that maybe there was something wrong with the first picture. On the road to work I figured that I should extract the exif headers from both pictures and send them to this list, but that would be tomorrow when I return home from work. If it is the case that the ill-formed name is the culprit of the lack of publication of the pic in FB, the solution will be easier :-) As soon as I get back home I will try renaming the first pic with an ASCII-only name and I will let you know the code bahaviour. Thank you very much :-) Kind regards for your great help Erasmo On 3 December 2010 13:17, Lucas Beeler <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Erasmo, > > We had a similar problem with Picasa Web Albums that turned out to be > a text encoding issue.
