When I try to add images to any of my albums the popup field for dragging and dropping images won't appear on one of my sites.  Works properly on the other two.

Following the installation instructions I successfully upgraded my site from Backlight to Backlight 2.  That procedure failed with the two other Backlight sites.  The installer would report a successful installation, but when I logged into Backlight 2 the settings page looked like the CSS files were missing.  Some of the text was there but the page was unusable.  There were no error messages. What worked in the end was to copy the files and folders (less Custom and Data folders) from the site that was working to the two that were not.  Then I could log into Backlight and complete the update process on those two as well.  On the two sites where normal installation failed the file "env.php.skel" was not created by the installer.  Bottom line: I am up and running with Backlight 2 on three sites and am happy with the program (except for the image background issues reported elsewhere).  It was a bit of a circus getting there, however.

Using Windows 10 current release and latest Backlight version. Lightroom edits to images already published are not uploaded.  I can publish new albums, but cannot publish edits to images in existing albums. The re-publish operation appears normal with no error messages, but the online images don't reflect the edits.  I've verified it is not a browser cache issue and if I download the edited images from the album into Photoshop (using my FTP Client) they are the original un-edited version rather than the edited version just published.  Interestingly the thumbnail of the edited image in the album is updated.

I have an image in an album that I edited in Lightroom, but cannot get it updated on the server.  Even deleting the image from the album, re-publishing the entire album without it, re-adding the edited image. and re-publishing the album does not work.  Everything seems normal except the original un-edited image remains in the album. I purged the browser cache and tried different browsers to no avail.

My preferred Theater show is Vegas Inline. On my site http://peppermill-multimedia.com I have five albums.  Four are Vegas Inline and the fifth, "Places We've Visited", is Flickity.  When I change that show's template to Vegas Inline and publish I get a blank show.  The Vegas Inline template works for the four, but not for the one.  Any help would be appreciated.

I have 2016 albums and videos with a link to earlier CE4 albums.  After the new year is it possible to create a 2017 Album Set page?  It would have a link to the 2016 version.  I suspect I can with a second installation of Backlight for the 2017 Albums, but that seems like a kludge.  Is there another way?  Thanks.

My Lightroom TTG Publisher is no longer able to communicate with the publisher folder on one of my websites.  Authentication fails with "Unable to perform action: checkAuth  Message: The page sent an action which was not available".   I did a complete re-install of Backlight and got the same result.  I recently migrated my three sites to In Motion hosting and this is the first time I tried to publish a new gallery. Interestingly I can publish just fine to my other site.  Any help would be appreciated.
