The only way I know of is to delete them from the log it's associated with. So I click on the photo and it'll say view log. From there I can delete the photo. Quote Link to comment

I would like to be able to delete from the gallery several images at once. Quote Link to comment
+SmileyPanda Posted October 9, 2020 Author Share Posted October 9, 2020 I have already deleted the photo from the log, but it still shows in the gallery. Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I just deleted a whole bunch of photos from my gallery and my number of pages went from 13 to 10 so I know they're gone I have not been able to figure out a quick way to delete TB photos that are in the gallery. Those photos do not have a log link. Quote Link to comment

I'm only asking this because it's such an easy thing to miss. After you hit the delete button you also have to hit the yes/confirm button that's in small letters at the top. Did you do that also?

Yes, the file is gone from the log, but still shows in the gallery. when I click on the photo in the gallery, it no longer shows a link to the original log page. Quote Link to comment

Ok, I think I know what is going on now. The file is gone from the gallery now, so I think that maybe it just requires time for the gallery to sync with the logs before it gets removed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

It would need to be your TB, or your log. If you open the specific log, you can click the "Edit Image" link and then "Delete Image". NOT to be confused with the "Delete Log" trashcan which deletes the log only. At least that's the way it should work. Lately there's a bug where a TB image shows blank when you upload or edit. I haven't done any testing on such "blank" previews. If I have a lot of time to try it someday, I might have more info. But you see the image at first, then click "Edit Image", and the next screen would be the one to delete, although it's not actually in view. Quote Link to comment

I think that's what I'm missing: I can't find the logs for the gallery photos that went with travel bugs. In the gallery you can click on the pictures for geocache logs and delete it but if it's a picture for a TB log there's no link to the log. I'm obviously missing something but I can't figure out why the gallery photo does not have a link to the TB log it belongs to. Quote Link to comment

Photos from cache logs have links to the log, photos from Trackables don't. I'd swear it used to be there. I'll go ask about that.

+SmileyPanda Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 OK, so at the risk of rehashing this topic.... I had deleted photos from logs, but they still show up in the gallery, and I don't understand why. Quote Link to comment
+Goldenwattle Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I deleted a log photograph and it disappeared from my gallery. I am using the old desktop. Quote Link to comment

I had deleted photos from logs, but they still show up in the gallery, and I don't understand why. Here are my steps. Click on my public profile and then the gallery tab. Click on the photo. Click on view log. Click on edit image. Click on delete image. Click on yes delete. Return to my public profile. Click on gallery. The photo is no longer there. I used this process for both the old profile and the new profile and the result was the same. Edited October 11, 2020 by Max and 99 Quote Link to comment

I know that I loaded travel bug photos too, and maybe that is the situation. I am able to delete other photos from logs and the are deleted from the gallery. Thanks for your help.

The inability to delete those travel bug log photos is very new and a mystery. It was your original post that brought me to discover this problem. So thanks for that! Quote Link to comment
+SmileyPanda Posted October 15, 2020 Author Share Posted October 15, 2020 Hey everyone, me again... If I delete the trackable log, will that remove the photo from the gallery? Quote Link to comment
