Resubmitting corrected images that failed QC

[patrickinseattle]

I've hunted for an answer to no avail. When trying to upload images that were in a failed QC batch that I have either made corrections or were fine and were just part of the batch I'm getting this message: Ignoring - already submitted

 

How do I resubmit these images back into Alamy for QC? I'm using the Alamy Lightroom plugin to manage my Alamy images.

 

Thanks for any clues.

I suspect it's the plug-in giving you the message so perhaps look at their help pages.

You could try changing the file names slightly when resubmitting images. Alamy's software might automatically reject images that have the same file names as previously submitted ones.

That’s strange. It’s been a long time since I had a fail, but I’m sure I’ve resubmitted an image or two that had removed dust bunnies and they were accepted.

Maybe things have changed since then. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I always change the file name -- usually by adding a letter to the end -- if I resubmit an image,  just to be on the safe side.

Thanks NYCat, that's the clue I needed. The "Ignoring - Already Submitted" came out of the log file from the Alamy Plug In and not from Alamy itself. I just uploaded the files through the Alamy site and they're awaiting QC. I did not rename any of them.

 

Thanks for all the responses!

I agree, this sounds new to me. I'm certain I've submitted files with the same name before now. Sometimes a resubmission after a QC fail, sometimes after I've further enhanced an image and resubmitted, and once I inadvertently submitted the same batch twice. However, if Alamy do start checking for dupes it would be a good thing IMHO (not just during upload, but also within the existing library).

Yes its an Alamy Lightroom Bridge thing only. I usually upload via the webpage if I need to get around this.
