but the devices are android lenovo - could there be a compatibility issue
Imported from GitHub comment by @enheduanna on 2022-03-29T15:25:20Z
perhaps that is (macOS) the reason why you don’t have .qfieldcloud folder. Me i am using windows. for compatibility with android lenovo, I don’t know.

Thank you so much. I am trying it on my pc and see if it resolves the
issue. THanks so much for your help. I really appreciate it. I am leaving
for an archaeological field trip to Iraq in a week and freaking out a bit
because the system does not fully work. Ahhh

try to create a Qfield cloud projet using the second method, but I don’t think that it will change something.
Ahh I understand.
another solution is to download your photos directly from qfield cloud platform but it is tedious task because you will not have them directly in your projet.

Ah I tried almost everything - qfield cloud just stores it on the local device and it not attached to the file. Its so odd because i did a small mock project to try the system and it worked perfectly without me choosing “relative to the project path”

sorry I am talking about attachments

Okay I think it worked. I think the length might have been too short. It was sting and 10 and I think its need to be larger.

Dear Juwizeye
I am sorry to bug you but unfortunately I have not received any other response to my other question that I posted on github. I am just wondering if you are able to help. It seems that once you package a project for QField cloud you cannot remove or reload data. Is that correct? At least that is so far my experience - or am I doing something wrong?
I have been setting up a QFieldCloud Project - I first saved the project under a specific name, added all the files and styled them in the way I want them to appear on the cloud and on QField on my devices. However when I remove any of the shp file layers in the QGIS app on my computer, synchronize the QFieldCloud Project and try to add these or other shp to the project on my computer and synchronize the project again, I always get a packaging error. Basically it appears that once I remove a layer I cannot add it again (or not add any files later on, which cannot be true) because it will not package it properly and not display in QField on my android device. The message I get on QField on my tablet is “QFieldCloud had trouble packaging your project” and further below it says for each layer that did not load again after I had removed and reloaded it (or added anew after creating the cloud project) on my computer and synchronized the project to the cloud “Packed layer ‘USP_001_Survey Grid’ is not valid. Error code invalid_dataprovider, error message”/tmp/tmp294gmyu3/The Umma Survey Project/Field Work Data/ April 2022 Season/USP_001/USP_001 […] missing." The only workaround is that I delete the current QFieldCloud Project add all the layers I want, package it and then reload the new QFieldCloud Project on my tablet. But it appears as if I cannot remove and reload files from the project itself nor add new files to it and synchronize the project.
Any advice? Would appreciate any help.
Thank you

sorry was not sure if I posted it in the right box and instead responded to myself

Hi,
sorry I have been busy. I can delete layers after adding my projet to Qfield cloud but I didn’t try to add layers. However, I am using PostgreSQL database to store my layers .

Mac may have the *nix way of interpreting paths, and file-/dirnames starting with a dot like .qfieldcloud there are hidden, you need to enable something like view hidden files in GUI, or use ls -a
in a terminal/bash…

If it helps: on some of my android devices, I had to clear the cache of the file manager in the tablet in order to make the DCIM file appear. After that, the pictures were automatically directed there (when the project is correctly configured).
