Minor Glitch with Photo Labels

by travelfrosch Online Now Jul 7, 2012 at 8:30 AM

Overall, great job with the new interface! I just wanted to point out a small glitch I discovered, though. When you use an apostrophe on a photo label, it truncates the text. For example, if you write "Minifrosch eyes Mark's beer," the label will come out "Minifrosch eyes Mark" :)

    Hi Mark It's an old and irritating problem that has attracted several posts on this forum over the last six months, but for some reason, seems to evade easy resolution. What's doubly annoying is that if you get the apostrophe included correctly in the tip, it will truncate again if you edit that tip. It will be a relief when it's finally resolved. Regards Cathy

    It was hard to pin down. If you upload a caption on one photo it works fine. It only happens when you add a caption with apostrophe and then go edit the tip another time. When you edit it, the apostrophe truncates then when you upload again it's truncated. it took us a long while of testing to isolate this case. It's being fixed now.

    It is easy to miss things...so much happens if you are away for a couple of days. I just omit the apostrophes now.

    I hate to say this but it seems that it is not fixed. At least not on my end of the world. Moreover, the photo captions I added aren't appearing in the tip itself. This one is a review I just wrote: "Benediktbeuern and the fascinating monastery" - Bavaria Things to Do Tip by Trekki I have added captions for photos 2-5. No photo captions visible for me when I am in the finished mode. And as for the cuts after apostrophes: For example: caption for photo 2 should be/was "Inside Benediktbeuern's church", now (in edit mode) it simply reads "Inside Benediktbeuern". Same for the other 3 photos. Ingrid
