Attention to the Montage Developers

[wikigrapher-sys]

Please take a relook at the Montage tool and fix the problems with it. Thank you

[ayushshukla1807]

Thanks for reaching out! To help us investigate effectively, could you share a bit more detail?

To help triage this, it would be useful to know:

• What specific behavior are you seeing? (e.g. a page that fails to load, a button that does not respond, an error message)
• Which part of Montage are you using? (e.g. campaign creation, round voting, juror management, photo import)
• Are you seeing any error messages in the UI or browser console?
• Roughly when did you start noticing this? (after a specific action, or on first load?)

For context, there are several active fixes in progress that may be related to what you are experiencing:

• PR Fix: Prevent 500 POST errors via strict frontend schema validation during Round Creation #454 — Prevents 500 errors during round creation when required fields are missing
• PR Style: Normalize backend endpoint URL slashes for Axios consistency #465 — Fixes finalize-round API calls silently failing due to a routing issue
• PR fix: surface auth failures and backend errors on vote save #472 — Surfaces authentication errors when a session expires during voting
• PR fix: follow category redirects during file import #428 — Fixes category imports returning 0 photos due to redirect handling

If any of those sound related to what you are seeing, please let us know and we can link your report to the relevant fix!

Thanks for your response. I think PR#428 has resurfaced. Please check. Thank you. Regards

Hey @wikigrapher-sys, the core issues regarding category extraction and redirected imports failing to mount (referencing #428 ) heavily relates to how MediaWiki target links are normalized inside the backend. The active PR #469 by @lgelauff resolves these exact target normalization faults. We should monitor imports after #469 securely merges.

@wikigrapher-sys I don't think this kind of issues are very helpful, I'm afraid. I understand your concerns, and we're trying to resolve them. But if you really want to help, the best you could do is really be as specific as possible as what is your problem. I'll close this issue to be able to see the issues that we can actually solve!
