Hi,

I know there is a simple solution to this, but I seem to be overlooking everything right now. What I am after worked fine when I used G 2.5, but after I upgraded to G 2.3 it seemed to stop. When I upload images through Gallery Remote (V 1.5 - latest download of it), it sets the Caption to the image name, or object name, which is cool. With G 2.5, it used to set the Summary and Description with the filename (extension stripped), but since I have upgraded to G 2.3, the Summary and Description remain blank. Ultimately, I would like the Caption to remain as the image/object name, the Summary and the Description to set to the filename. This gives the album a nice clean look with the subject's name just above the filename under the thumbnails.

Here is my G2 info:

Gallery URL = http://www.imagesportnz.com
Gallery version = 2.3 core 1.3.0
API = Core 7.54, Module 3.9, Theme 2.6, Embed 1.5
PHP version = 5.2.5 cgi
Webserver = Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.28 OpenSSL/0.9.7a PHP-CGI/0.4mm
Database = mysql 5.0.77mm0.1-log, lock.system=flock
Toolkits = Getid3, ImageMagick, Gd, Exif, ArchiveUpload, NetPBM, LinkItemToolkit, SquareThumb, Thumbnail
Acceleration = none, none
Operating system = Linux serv01.siteground217.com 2.6.28.5-grsec-sg2 #6 SMP Fri Feb 20 02:45:11 CST 2009 i686
Default theme = matrix
gettext = enabled
Locale = en_US
Browser = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090824 Firefox/3.5.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Rows in GalleryAccessMap table = 243
Rows in GalleryAccessSubscriberMap table = 18826
Rows in GalleryUser table = 105
Rows in GalleryItem table = 18763
Rows in GalleryAlbumItem table = 746
Rows in GalleryCacheMap table = 0

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,

Are you using the latest beta version of Gallery Remote? There hasn't been an official release in years, but we do still maintain beta versions.FAQ: How do I upgrade GR?
