Keep link between app and content library at export and import when possible

Hello all,

Here is my issue : 

-we have three environments

-we try to centralize data but also iconography. We have tons of images.

-so... I thought it was smart to put images, icon, thumbnails in a content library. Works perfectly on the development environment.

-I created the same content library and upload as well the content in the test and production environment. 

-Then, I exported my application from dev to test and prod. The picture is here, very cool, I was so proud of myself.


BUUUUUUUUUUUUUT  I had to change the picture. 

I was like : "hey easy, I will just have to upload the picture on the three environments and here we are"

On development, no trouble, the application shows the new picture.

On test and proction, the application shows the former picture !!!

How this is even possible ? Well.. the link between the content library and the application has been broken during the export/import operation and on test/production, it's now an application content !!!!

 


I can understand than if the link doesn't exist, it must be broken and replace by application content but right here, there is not a single reason to break the link at all !


Best regards,

Simon
