    Hi!
    I would like to see the EXIF data of the currently displayed thumbnail article (in widget area..)
    I tried to enter the code:

    <? php
if (function_exists ('exifography_display_exif'))
exifography_display_exif echo ();
?>

    to make it perform in the bar, but the result is a widget empty!
    how can I do?

    thanks!

    Hi Davide,

    Sorry for the delayed reply.

    You can add the following to your theme’s functions.php, or a plugin file if you have one to keep site-specific code snippets:

    // creates a shortcode to show EXIF outside the loop
add_shortcode( 'widget_exif' , 'exif_outside_loop' );
function exif_outside_loop() {
	global $wp_query;
	$post_ID = $wp_query->post->ID;
	$img = get_post_thumbnail_id($post_ID);
	if (function_exists ('exifography_display_exif'))
	echo exifography_display_exif($img);
}

// enables shortcodes within widgets
add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');

    Then add [widget_exif] to a text widget. NB you will probably need a plugin that restricts the widget to only single posts and this particular code will show the exif for the featured image.
