Preference for version name is not working
title
I recently purchased FlickrExport for Aperture 2, I uploaded all my images and now I would like to change the Titles in Aperture and have them update in Flickr, I've chosen the preference for version name and uploaded again, and it is not working, the title is still the old photo number, and also when I updated this info, not only did it not change the Title of the image, it put the image at the end (out of order) in Flickr

Inappropriate?Hi,
I'm sorry, but the replace feature doesn't work as you think. It is designed only to upload the image again and will not replace any of the metadata.
I do have an open request to add the ability to upload metadata changes. -
Inappropriate?I hope you can change that, I paid extra for the feature of being able to re-upload, and now it won't change metadata and it puts the image in the wrong order, also, on connectflow website it says the paid version can "Add a "Flickr" keyword to photos after uploading" isn't that changing metadata afer an upload? Please clarify. Thanks
I’m confused

Inappropriate?Hi again,
When you say that replacing a photo is putting it in the wrong order, where is that happening? On Flickr? In your photostream, or a group or set?
The "add a keyword" feature refers to the ability to add a keyword in Aperture's metadata.
I’m disappointed not to have met your expectations.

Inappropriate?It's happening in Flickr when viewing a set, the image is at the end of the set, however it's in the correct order when viewing Stream.
And sorry I'm still confused about the "add a keyword", does that mean that particular metadata can be updated to flickr after uploading an image to Flickr? -
Inappropriate?"does that mean that particular metadata can be updated to flickr after uploading an image to Flickr"
Here are the rules regarding replacement:
The "Replace existing photo on Flickr" checkbox is only enabled if the image has a custom metadata key in Aperture with the name "Flickr ID" and a Flickr photo ID number as the value.
If the checkbox is disabled or enabled but unchecked, FlickrExport will send both the photo and all current metadata from Aperture to Flickr and the image will appear at the head of your photostream
If the checkbox is enabled and checked, FlickrExport will take the current image from Aperture and use it to replace the existing image on Flickr. No metadata will be sent in this case. It should be exactly equivalent to clicking the Replace This Photo link on the photo's page.

Inappropriate?Thanks for clarifying the replace feature, I'll give it a shot, I will look forward to when we can update more the title/version metadata as well.
I’m thankful
