Not all photo folders showing as albums

[TheNetStriker]

I've just switched to Nextcloud 18 and the new Photos app. In my account are a lot of folders with photos, but only 32 of them are listed as albums in the Photos app. But if I manually enter the name of one of the missing folders in the url I can browse the missing album.

Is this a known problem or how can I solve this problem?

Hey! Thanks for your report :)
That' is odd, could you share the content of one of your missing album?

Sadly I cannot share the content, but I guess I know what causes this confusion. I have several folders with subfolders containing pictures. Some of the main Folders also contain pictures, but some do not. Here is a simple example:

MainFolder1
SubFolder1
Picture1
MainFolder2
SubFolder2
Picture2
Picture3

In this case the SubFolder1 and MainFolder2 would show up as albums on the top level, but SubFolder2 is not shown on top level but as a sub album of the MainFolder2.

Is there maybe a way to always show the whole folder structure like it was in the old picture app even if the main folders do not contain a picture directly?

AH, so this would be a duplicate of #142 ?(#142 (comment))

@skjnldsv Yes this seems to describe exactly what I'm experiencing, but I guess there will be no change to this as far as I saw in the other issue?

No idea yet :)
Let's continue on the other issue
