Hi Stephanie,
Can you check whether you have the auto-insert option enabled, or the individual post settings enabled (i.e., you need to have some fields selected + auto insert on the main options page or fields selected on the individual post).
And can you check whether the images are attached to the post? You can tell if they are because in the media library table it will have a link to the post in the “uploaded to” column (and it should be the post that you are trying display the EXIF on. Otherwise you’ll need to use the shortcode.
Have you tried the shortcode at all?
I’ve tried it both ways I think. One with the auto set and one with the individual posts.
1. The images are attached to the post
2. I’ve tried the short code as well.
I do have an empty site that I can install the theme on for testing purposes if that’s helpful.
thanks for you quick response.
Stephanie
Krista,
I set up the same theme on an empty domain I have and still unable to get the exif data to appear. I can set up a log in for you if you would like.
What I tried both adding the exif automatically and adding it via a shortcode.
This is the post I’m testing… http://www.stephanielelie.com/2013/02/testing-exifography/
I aslo confirmed the image is attached to the post. Again thanks for your help on this
Yes, if you could create a login for me that would be great. You should have my email address.
Hi Stephanie,
I’ve taken a look at your test site and I don’t think it’s a problem with Headway, I think it’s the server you’re on. I think the server doesn’t have the PHP EXIF module active. I switched to the TwentyTwelve theme and the EXIF didn’t display in that either. So I put this in a theme file
<?php if (function_exists('exif_read_data')) echo 'exif is ON';
else echo 'exif is OFF'; ?>
It checks to see if one of the EXIF module’s functions exists and it said that it didn’t.
You will need to check with your host to see if it can be installed or activated.
Hi Kristarella,
I was wondering if this works for buddypress. When some one uploads a photo on their activity I would like this exif data to display? I am using activity plus. Any help would be great. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Dave
Kristarella,
Just wanted to let you know that you were right the PHP EXIF module was not activated. I can now see the plugin working.
Thanks again for your help.
Stephanie
