Description ralphdewitt 2005-07-23 14:36:51 UTC 
Version:           0.7 (using KDE 3.4.1, Kubuntu Package 4:3.4.1-0ubuntu0hoary1 ())
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8ubuntu2)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.10-5-386

When photo ablums are rearranged/moved in the tree or renamed all photo tag's and comments are lost. This causes a tremendous amount of work to be redone, and is to good.

How did you move and rename the albums?
Comment 2 ralphdewitt 2005-07-23 15:25:54 UTC 
I simply grabed the album in the left hand pane of digikam and moved it to a new position in the tree. In my ablum structure I arrange my ablums by Year. My Top ablum will be named for example 2000's this may contain photo's and ablums that can not be placed in a specific year. I then have Ablums for all the years 2000, 2001 etc. These will contain both photo's and ablums. Ablums usually have a name for predominate subject. These ablums were placed in order, I then taged and commented some ablums. Then decided that I did not like the tree order for the ablums so rearranged them. I renamed ablums by clicking on ablums, edit properties and changed name. Hope this helps.

I have been playing some more with this problem and for the life of me, I can not duplicate it. I think that the original problem came about when I created a new ablum under My Ablums named 1990, I then grabbed a ablum from with in ablum and moved it in to this new ablum then moved the original ablum to trash by right clicking on ablum then clicking on move to trash item. However now when I move tagged photos from one ablum to another, or move a ablum from one directory to another with in the current structure all tags and comments follow the move. Even creating a new ablum under My Ablums and moveing a commented and tagged ablum has the tags and comments following. I do not like non reproduceable problems/bugs.

Ok, I would be very surprised if there is the error as described.
I closed the bug, if you have that problem again later, feel free to reopen.
