custom metadata does not trigger republish in metadataThatTriggersRepublish

Question

Hello, I added a custom metadata to my plugin and in the metadataThatTriggersRepublish function :  function exportServiceProvider.metadataThatTriggersRepublish( publishSettings )
  return {
    default = false,
    title = true,
    caption = true,
    keywords = true,
    gps = true,
    dateCreated = true,
    ["com.myplugin.mymetadata"] = true,
    customMetadata = true,
  }
end But when I update mymetadata in a photo from a published collection, it does not mark the photo to republish. I don't understand why and if it's a lightroom bug or if I miss something? Do you have this working like expected? Thank you

Same problem for me. I've experimented with a number of variations on the 'metadataThatTriggersRepublish' table. None of them seem to work: custom metadata changes never move the photo into the "republish" category.

I've also noticed that, no matter what I put in the table, standard metadata changes like ratings or keywords always move the photo into the "republish" category. The values in the table don't appear to have any effect at all.
