Description undrline 2017-05-25 14:51:52 UTC
Not all the plugins appear in the DigiKam Import menu.
Demonstrated here with the Facebook plugin: https://youtu.be/QBhf-mA1UxU
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
DigiKam 5.5.0

Even when a plugin is enabled through the configuration menu, only picasa/google and smugmug appear as external services under the import menu.

I tried exporting a sample image to Facebook without issue, since that appears in the Export menu, thinking it might have something to do with linking/authorizing the account.  No change.

Restarting the application at various points (after disabling the plugin, after restoring, etc) had no effect.

I find a picture where it was working at some point in time on KDE: https://userbase.kde.org/Digikam/Facebook  And, the plugin does say Import/Export.  So, I don't think I'm crazy.

Could not find anything in the FAQ or documentation about this issue, or the function being discontinued.

You has right.

The compilation was broken due to a missing export rule in internal component of libkipi-plugins which break the kipi tools compilation... without to return an error. So no kipi tools was compiled and included in Windows bundle.

I fixed the problem with next 5.7.0. The Bundle size is now increased of 100Mb and all tools are there.

The bundle 32 bits is already available. The 64 bits is under construction (this take few hours to compile).

Yay!  Glad I could help.  I look forward to the official release.  The Google Drive version you linked is throwing up all sorts of warnings with Windows Defender and Avast Antivirus at the moment; I figure I can wait.

Thank you!

Ahah.. Windows defender. A fake...

All the bundle is done under Linux with a cross compiler, including the installer.exe. There is no windows used (it's my Linux computer).

No virus inside, i'm sure. It compiled as the offcial release. I just use the source current code in fact...

Hello

I just uninstall 5.6.0 and install 5.7.0 and nothing change.
http://prntscr.com/g2muvm

And also if I choose to upload to Facebook, I can't register with the URL.

It says always aboard by user. Now I found the problem about this.
Facebook shows the secret link only short and forwards them to a wrong link.
This means you must copy the URL very fast ;-)
So this is working now.

Windows 10
Samsung Notebook

Kind regards 

Marcel

PS: greatest Software for handle photos, thanks for your work.

BTW. I just found out in 5.7.0 geotag not working so I will wait on the official version.

Currently the Facebook plugin has no import function anymore. The import function was removed some time ago. It is still listed as an import / export plugin that is an error. What is not working on geotagging?
