It is hard to imagine what the problem could be, anyway, this is not a general 
error of digikam, as it works fine in many installations.

Do you see your images in calendar view?
Did you try rescanning the album (tools->scan for new images)?
Are the file types still in the mime-type list (setting->mime types? If not, 
reset them by clicking the right-end refresh icon.
