Export to Photobucket Changelog

What's new in Export to Photobucket 20150126.115

Jan 29, 2015
  • Added support for the {People} template token, which works in conjunction with my People Support plugin to automatically include in upload captions and the like the names and/or ages of people in a photo.
  • Fix to the date_diff() function supported by the LUA template token.
  • Updated the camera-name code to try to guess the actual camera model of Hasselblad H5D files, since in their infinite wisdom Hasselblad decided to encode three distinct models with the same internal code, making it impossible to know for sure what camera produced a given image file.

New in Export to Photobucket 20130820.94 (Aug 20, 2013)

  • Made big updates to the "Export with Smart Previews?" section; you can now pick to be asked whether to export via Smart Previews, and can differentiate between when the Smart Previews are "good enough" for an export and when they are not.
  • Fixed the KW/KWE tables in template tokens; they had been broken when using load for the script.
  • Better handle very long user account names, so that the [Logout] button doesn't get cut off of the Export dialog.

New in Export to Photobucket 20130701.93 (Jul 3, 2013)

  • Work around a bug that causes the export-related progress bar to not show up right away.

New in Export to Photobucket 20130524.88 (May 28, 2013)

  • Apparently, a recent change broke things on Lr2, which some folks apparently still use.

New in Export to Photobucket 20130520.87 (May 22, 2013)

  • Added the ability in Lr5 to export images even if the master image file is not available, so long as there's a smart preview available.

New in Export to Photobucket 20130501.86 (May 3, 2013)

  • Update for Lr5

New in Export to Photobucket 20130319.82 (Mar 20, 2013)

  • Export could crash if a too-big-for-the-remote-service video upload was attempted.
  • Fixed a possible plugin crash in Lr2 that might happen if the remote site's servers are failing.

New in Export to Photobucket 20130214.80 (Feb 19, 2013)

  • Small fix for Lr2

New in Export to Photobucket 20130206.78 (Feb 7, 2013)

  • Update the Twitter-related code to handle their new API. Their old API goes away next month.

New in Export to Photobucket 20130201.77 (Feb 5, 2013)

  • A lot of work on the upload datapath, making it more efficient and restoring the ability to retry the attempt on certain errors.
  • Added the ability to set the caption on a one-off basis by just typing it in, avoiding the need to make a preset each time.

New in Export to Photobucket 20121020.76 (Oct 22, 2012)

  • A recent optimization for Lr4 broke support for Lr2.

New in Export to Photobucket 20121017.75 (Oct 17, 2012)

  • Plugin was blocking export due to DPX-video format in some cases where Lightroom didn't allow the format to be changed.

New in Export to Photobucket 20121009.73 (Oct 10, 2012)

  • Workaround for an "attempt to call field 'getProgressScope'" bug introduced in Lr4.2.
  • Disallow DPX-format video export, since that totally breaks things.
  • Enhance the {EMPTY} template token so that it interrupts the squelching of superfluous joining characters.

New in Export to Photobucket 20120821.72 (Aug 24, 2012)

  • Updates to the environment in the {LUA} token (in the template tokens in the developer's plugins) to include photoTime() and currentTime(), and other changes to match the updated docs at that link.

New in Export to Photobucket 20120614.71 (Jun 14, 2012)

  • Very slow uploads in Lr4.1 could cause the new progress bar stuff to blow up.
  • Twitter support now allows suppressing "Private" geoencoded locations in Lr4.1+

New in Export to Photobucket 20120602.70 (Jun 2, 2012)

  • New upload engine in Lr4.1 that greatly increases the efficiency of large uploads. In Lr4.0 and older versions, upload handling is inefficient and large uploads can crash Lightroom.
  • With Lr4.1 and later, you also get an upload percent-complete report in the task progress bar, and the ability for upload cancels to take effect immediately.

New in Export to Photobucket 20120330.68 (May 19, 2012)

  • Update to handle 4.1RC
