confirmed failure: I manually created the folder associated to the new album I've just created (in my case flder 976 under image under user 33 under day 12 under month 11 under year 2013 under elgg_data) and guess what, I uploaded a photo in this album and it worked, meaning the photo uplaoded and is displayed correctly.
Outcome: on my sistem (hosted by godaddy) the plugin fails to create the folder when a new album is created. How could I fix this? Where are the code lines located?
Thank you.
Then you are not using the latest version of Tidypics or you have not updated cleanly to the latest version. The problem with creating the album folder within the data directory is exactly the reason why Tidypics rc1 does NOT work anymore on Elgg 1.8.15 and 1.8.16.
Use http://community.elgg.org/plugins/1194049/1.8.1beta11/elgg-18-tidypics instead. On upgrading disable Tidypics on your site, delete the tidypics folder in mod completely. Then copy the new version on the server and enable it again. Should it still not work then and the folder fails to be created the permissions and/or owner and/or group of your data directory are set wrong.
