    Hi,

    I've just noticed that if you have 2 or more files with the same filename, but differrent extension (i.e. photo1.gif, photo1.jpg, photo1.png), the last file in the upload sequence will overwrite the others.

    In the prior example, you would end up with 3 copies of photo1.png despite the fact that you uploaded 3 different images. To make matters worse, it affects the album cover and will also produce the same issue when you upload a file after the album has been created. For example, if I then uploaded photo1.bmp at a different time after the other 3 files were added, all previous copies of photo1.* will be overwritten by photo1.bmp.

    Anyone else found this?

    This is by design. As I've mentioned in another post, we plan to add options for file handling in an upcoming release.

    Thanks Will,

    When you mean "by design", is it intentional or is it an inherent result of the unfinished roadmap?

    It is intentional for the current feature set
