Cover image not shown on top level if subfolders don't contain images

[mcwieger]

Don't know if it's a bug or a feature request (if it was simply not accounted for), but here we go.

I have a folder structure where some folders don't contain pictures until folder level 3. Example: Top folder is called Events, with subfolder 2022, which has subfolders House party and School party:

• Events
  • 2022
    • House party
      • Photo1.jpg
      • Photo2.jpg
    • School party
      • Photo3.jpg
      • Photo4.jpg

The issue is that the Events folder does not show a cover image from one of the child folders 'House party' or 'School party', as it apparently looks down two folders under root only. Can this be changed to the first level where it finds a picture?

Did you index all subfolders? The app should show a preview. Also check preview settings if that looks good.

I indexed multiple teams, database reset...the works :-)

I have this issue on three folders in my root folder and I just figured out that what they have in common is that neither of these folders contains a picture before the level 3 folder.

I'm on nightly Alpine btw.

This sounds odd. I'll take a look.
