| On uploading some tiles, something odd happened in Brickstore.
See picture, where 3068bpx8 is shown as
[p=3068bpx8]

Try:
* manually update the BrickStore database
* if it still doesn't, locate this file in the brickstore cache location
and delete it
HTH?

No - this won't help. It's just a clash between the LDraw and BrickLink
ids: the screenshot shows the 3D view, which is based on LDraw data. It would
be nice if the ids were harmonized, but sadly they aren't 100%, especially
when it comes to decorated or composite items.
The best thing to do IMHO would be to report these clashes to Bricklink and LDraw
and hopefully these can be fixed by their catalog admins in the future.

“Their catalog admins”? Are you talking about LDraw?
That’s not how it works.
First, the IDs are different for the same reason they are different on Rebrickable
or in other databases: nomenclatures and IP.
Nomenclatures: Not everyone agree on how to number patterns.
IP: in 2014, BrickLink issued a Cease & Desist to BrickOwl for the use of BrickLink
IDs & names.
When the IDs are the same it’s because they are unpatterned, or are old / come
from Peeron, when everybody worked together.
That being said, many LDraw parts have the BL ID in their keywords (that is,
inside the file).
For instance, 3068bpx8.dat contains “BrickLink 3068bpb1126” as a keyword.
If you want a match between BL IDs and LDraw files, you may also try Studio’s
database (when Studio uses the LDraw file and hasn’t made its own).
