Thank you for creating this plug-in. Works well.
One problem that I am having is when adding photos to an existing folder. It seems to upload the photo – and the cover page of the album will show the photo (if the album was empty), but the new pictures do not show up in the album. They show up properly when adding to a new album – even a new album with the same name as an existing album.
I’ve tried logging out of wal-mart’s site and back in – but it didn’t appear.
Just wanted to provide feedback. I am working around it and do not expect a response. Thank you.

Mark,
I wasn’t sure if you didn’t want to be bothered, or you just don’t believe in technical support, so here is my response anyway
The thing I’ve noticed, sometimes there’s a delay before an uploaded image appears in the album. I’ve seen delays as long as 5 minutes.
So far I can’t tell for certain if this can be avoided, but I will definitely look into this. Thanks for your feedback!

Hey Vlad,
I was wondering if the plugin has been updated for the full release of Lr3? Or will the Lr3 beta version sill work fine?
Thanks, Kyle
