I have a macro with a multiplemedia picker as a parameter, but when I try and do a synch (in either direction) it tells me the pickers are different but they appear to be identical.
Certainly sounds like it could be. It isn't a problem as I just ignore it, other than this tiny niggle everything working great.
I have noticed one thing and that is that if they move stuff around, especially media you can end up with both a localnotremote and a remotenotlocal item for the media they have moved, and unless you do the remove local first followed by the merge remote it never synchs up.
I also have a question about starting a converge, is there any startup/finished event that can be overridden perhaps as I would like to set an option to disable their media protection code prior to synching and then re-enable it when it has completed.
The quick answer is to switch off this Converge converter, under Settings: Pre-V7.7.0 Multi Media Picker update.
It looks like macros are using "Umbraco.MultipleMediaPicker" as a property editor. For data types, after V7.6.0, one with the same name was removed and merged with the main Media Picker (with a "multi" switch). The converter mentioned deals with that conversion, as you're working only with Umbraco 8, it won't be a problem to switch it off.
I need to update Converge to stop that conversion for macros.
Thanks for letting me know about it, I do want to sort out these issues when they arise.
Macro parameter question
Hi Stuart, me again :D
Using latest nuget version
I have a macro with a multiplemedia picker as a parameter, but when I try and do a synch (in either direction) it tells me the pickers are different but they appear to be identical.
This is what the merge line says
The parameter is a MultipleMediaPicker in both local and remote, any ideas?
Possibly related to this issue:
https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/8388
Where the MediaPicker MacroParameter stores integer Ids and not Udis
(just mentioning, I don't have a solution!)
