Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):

Step 1: Uploaded a photo using the phone app

Step 2: Attempted to assign it to a Project using the “Project” field, tried with both the phone app and the desktop computer

I uploaded two photos today. I was able to assign one to a project but not the other.

i don’t think there’s a bug here.

you can manually add observations only to “traditional” projects. your project is a collection project. this means that observations get included in the project based on your project criteria. so look at your observations and make sure they fit those criteria. usually when projects are associated with small places such as yours the issue is that your observations fall outside the bounds of your place. so that’s what i would check first.
