[digiKam-users] Metadata missing after moving images between albums

[WuliNuChem]

I'm new here, so forgive me if my question is not formatted correctly.

I have recently upgraded to DigiKam version 7.5.0.
It is configured as MySQL Server (was going to set it up for two PC's but
never did).
I have approximately 100,000 images.

My issue:
Click on album name and highlight some thumbnail images - 60 images the
last time this issue occurred.
Drag the images and drop into a different album and select move.
Images move correctly but metadata disappears from the thumbnail and the
thumbnail pop up (tooltips I think it's called). And the date box on the
captions page is blank: time is still there.
The metadata still exists according the the metadata tab on the right
toolbar (and exists in the image file according to a third party metadata
app).

I figure this has to be a bug, so I guess I'm asking how to get the
metadata back where it belongs.

Where does the metadata shown on the thumbnails come from? The database or
the image file? Same with the right sidebar metadata tab?
I assume it would be from the db. So maybe the db wasn't updated properly
during the move?  Is there a way to compare the two?
Can I resync?

The weird thing is 26 out of 60 images that lost the data were in the
middle of the new album images (as sorted by date).

Any thoughts? I have some screenshots but I'm not sure of the policy on
posting them. I haven't seen any screen shots during my search for similar
issues.

Thanks,

Gord
