Unable to post comments on photostation

[philw_uk]

Hi everyone,
I've recently taken delivery of a DS1512+ and am having some trouble which I hope you can help with: I am unable to post photo comments in Photostation.

Here is what I have done:
- I am using Photostation accounts, rather than DSM ones.
- I have create 3 test accounts: "test" which is a non-admin user with browser/admin privelages. User "test2" which is a PS administrator. Finally "test3" which has browse/upload/blog permissions.
- Whenever I upload a photo (as any user), the other users (and indeed the user I uploaded as) is able to view the photo, but there is no option to add comments, apart from at upload time.

I've tried various combinations and I'm sure I must be missing something obvious, as I don't seem to be able to find any posts which indicate that this is a problem with the software itself.

Can anyone help? DSM version: 4.0-2198.

Anyone, I am getting the same problem. Can't comment on certain photos...

Ive got the same problem after updating.
But 1 remark
adding comments at photo's uploaded before the last update works fine.
adding comments at photo's uploaded after the last update doesn't work.

anyone a solution?
i think it's a bug in the last version of photostation 5.1-2202

Regards
André

Thanks to a swift response from Synology support, this is now resolved.

- Comments need to be enabled on a per album basis.
- When creating a new album, there is an "Allow comments" checkbox on the settings dialogue.
- For existing albums, go to the album and select "More" -> "Album info and privacy". Make sure the "Allow comments" checkbox is ticked.
- My users can now post comments - you even get a virtual album for recently commented photos.
