Lightroom CC 2015, Publish Services error

KerinFors May 11, 2015 4:21 PM

Since upgrading Lightroom, the strangest thing is happening with Publish Services (to hard drive). I had an existing Publish Service exporting edited images to my hard drive. Since the upgrade, it keep randomly designating images as "modified" and requiring re-publishing. At first I thought I must have made some minor changes and not remembered, but it is happening even when I haven't made any changes to any images. In fact, it literally cycles images up to the "re-publish modified images" while I watch. In other words, every time I just click on the collection, images just start disappearing from the "published" section, and going back up to the "modified" section. No changes have been made too the Publish Services settings. Totally bizarre. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to stop it?

I am experiencing the same problem and it's really disturbing. For me it started when I upgraded to Lightroom CC. I have found a few threads on different forums where this problem is described, but I have yet to find a fix for it. Anyone else know how to fix this?

I've been dealing with this for months, with ALL published images going straight to "modified photos to re-publish". It's been frustrating.

I finally stumbled onto a solution! Uncheck the "Remove Person Info" box:

Thanks trogerwilliams! I'll give that a go and see if that helps. I appreciate the suggestion. I did already have the "Remove Person Info" box already unchecked, but I turned it on, saved, turned it off and saved again. Fingers crossed.

i've had the same issue for years, and i just ignored it, but now it's a real problem. I'm publishing 30K+ photos to a hard drive on another PC on my network. LR does the job, but then thousands of photos wind up in the "modified" section and get re-published when i have new photos to publish. I tired unchecking the "remove person info" box but no joy. What are others experiencing with this?

Please add your me-too vote and details about your issue to this bug report in the official Adobe feedback forum: Lightroom: Images unexpectedly appear under "Modified Photos to Re-Publish" | Photoshop Family Customer Community. Based on reports in these forums, it seems that more people are experiencing the problem in recent releases of LR CC 2015 / 6. Best to continue the discussion in the bug report, where other users and Adobe product developers are much more likely to see it. (Product developers rarely participate in this forum.)

Everything seems Ok for the last two days. I did get some sort of database update -or something like that which required a restart of LR. I wonder if the republish problem has been resolved? Anyone else? Is it finally fixed?!
