When creating a new gallery in Lightroom through the Plug-in, Lightroom now creates a recovery file that can restore the gallery data. If the gallery is deleted from Lightroom, this recovery file will import the images back into the catalog. Learn more here.

You now won’t need to relogin when reopening a previously used catalog. When creating new catalog, you will also be logged into the Plug-in automatically.

If you have selected a group of images to create a new gallery with, now there is a checkbox in the Create Gallery window which will add your current selection of photos to the first scene you create. After the gallery is created, you can move the images into their separate scenes if needed. Learn more here.

You can now use characters: /\%'\"|,:?*><

Please Note: In many cases, Lightroom will remove these characters automatically, if it causes issues to the filing system. Lightroom removes the characters when your images are saved to the disk before uploaded to the site. In general we do not recommend using these characters anyways.

Heartbeat is a mechanism where Lightroom sends the server signals that it's active. In the future, this will allow for remote recovering galleries, restarting the Plug-in, and more.

If Lightroom says there is an Uploader Error, go to File > Plug-In Manager, and in the Pic-Time Plug-in Advanced Configuration, click Reset Uploader Connection to resolve. Learn more here.
