After version 1.5 something, the link to "Photo Proberties" do not show up in my Gallery, I did check jhead, and I have latest version 2.3 and also the other program exiftags.

Both defined in the config.php

$gallery->app->use_exif = "/usr/bin/jhead";
$gallery->app->exiftags = "/usr/bin/exiftags";

I did try all of the hints i have found in the forum about exif, but it does not work for me...

running jhead and exiftags from commandline works fine!

(In my gallery2 testsite, exif works fine http://gallery2.nenni.net using same photos... running on very same server)

See attachec Screenshot.

This should occur if jhead or exiftags is installed and path is given in setup.

Regards,

Jens

I believe gallery notes the exif data when the file is uploaded and pulls it out of a data file from there on out. If the exif was off/not working at the time of upload, I don't believe gallery will be able to pull it out of the jpg itself. At least, that is my understanding, I may be way off on this.

Jordan_01002,

you are wrong, or lets say you are mixing things.
When Gallery shows the complete exifdata (not the custom fields) then it reads the info directly from the file.

johann@nenni.net, i may be pedantic, but can you double check that the setting for display exifis "yes" for that album ?
Its a per album setting.

P.S.: Gallery 1.5.1 is under development ! i wouldnt use it in production.
P.S.S.: I must know it... see my Signature ;)

Yes Tim_i i know who you are... as very long time user of Gallery

I did some test, and installed gallery in new location http://g1.nenni.net

did only use default everything, except for skin, I use "Yellow" I can see "Photo Properties" link, but I can not se any "Enable EXIF Data" But there was one selection "Addtitional EXIF Data" and that selection dit go away after i did select, so I can not remove it again... :cry:
