Photopost searches

[pharry]

Ugh. I have a shopping site, and a photoshop gallery. Folks can upload things they have created to our gallery. I have done searches for the various products I sell, and put a link in the shopping site to the images in the gallery.

For example, on the widgets shopping page, there will be a link to the gallery that displays everything in the gallery that used widgets.

This was all fine and dandy until the recent upgrade. Now none of those links work correctly. The search part isn't getting done, so I basically just get a list of the recent gallery additions.

I guess I'm going to have to go recreate all those searches and update all the links in the shopping site. not fun. But my question is ... will this work? I know that the new version of the photopost saves the search results (I think?) When that expires, will be link no longer work? If new things are uploaded to the gallery, will they be included when the search is re-executed from the link in the shopping site.

I hope this makes sense!

Ugh is right. What did you upgrade?

I upgraded to Photopost 5.62. I forget what version I was on before that, but I was probably about a year behind.

I wonder if there is a way to go back?

Yea... don't think you'll find it on versiontracker lol
Chuck will probably have some suggestions for you when he gets online.. wish I could help you out but I dunno.

BTT - Chuck, I need to recreate all my searches, but before I put in all that effort, I want to make sure that the new searches will "stick". In other words, if I create a search and post the link in my shopping site, will that search work a month from now? Thanks.
