I update metadata in Photo Gallery,
i’d like to access those updates elsewhere, eg. Lightroom.
etc.
Is there a way / a hack?
Thanks
Rob
I’ve never been able to get the Imagely plugin to work effectively and have resorted to third party solutions (NextGEN Gallery LR Plugin and WP/LR Sync) both of which are independent developer projects which tend to “break” whenever LR comes out with a major revision.
Ideally I would love the Imagely ecosystem to handle the solution end to end, LR to WordPress to $ in my pocket. Am I the only one who can’t get success out of the Imagely connect LR plugin? When I try to publish a gallery (HTTP mode) I get a series of javascript errors as shown below screenshots. Lightroom progress bar just hangs after a while and the Imagely logs show that it is just waiting for a response endlessly. When I try to use FTP mode , it complains the the custom preset is incomplete (even though it’s not). I am not clear whether FTP uploads have been totally deprecated in the plugin or not.
As it stands I am having to manually upload my galleries and I don’t really have a sync solution which is what I desperately desire.
Windows 11
LRC 13.0.1
WordPress 6.4.1 running Imagely Ansel theme. Using Genesis 3.4.0. / PHP 8.2
My host is a normal commercial hosting platform Dreampress Pro on Dreamhost
Am I doing something wrong or is there something I need to adjust server side?

Even if you aren’t a photographer, but you are utilizing original photos on your site, the workflow that becomes possible with this app is unbeatable. It’s also a great option for Technical SEO, especially when you mix it with the Perfect Images App. If you haven’t seen the Meow Apps catalog, then you don’t even know the possibilities yet. I highly recommend checking them out.

Great/perfect Lightroom integration
Awesome presentation for print sales
Love the ability to either use a lab (WHCC is great) or fulfill on own
LOVE this plugin
]]>Now, 2 weeks(!) later, the issue is still not resolved, the plugin is still not working, despite ALL customers using this plugin are affected! I can’t beleive that poor level of customer orientation.
In the meantime my sustomer is threatening me with project cancellation and financial compensation for not being able to complete the job in time – without my fault in any way.
Nextgen just provided as a “workaround” to publish the pics within the plugins dashboard – I wouldn’t have needed that “help”, but this is impossible for hundreds of pictures and then assigning description texts and categoris/tags to them manually. The Lightroom integration was THE central reason to use Imagely and THE pre-condition to realise this project with hundreds of tagged, categorized pictures – and now it stopped working for weeks!
Nextgen only says, they are “depending on someone else” to fix the problem. No binding perspective of a deadline, when the problem will be fixed. Anyway I am a paying customer (I have a lifetime license) and I guess not the only one affected. This is really annoying. Can Nextgen afford this kind of customer frustration? Will I get my money back for the time of malfunction?
What can I tell my customer, who is harassing me with daily and increasingly angry phone calls?
And most important: Will Nextgen compensate me, when my customer sues me?
But as a precaution for such cases it is impossible to find an official contact on their website to ask that questions. Respectable EU companies are holding imprint informations on their sites for similar circumstances, but this seems not to bother US companies, they seem to work on a “america first – what do we care about the rest of the world” philosophy.
Really frustrated and disappointed greetings

Now it works but when I click thumbnail of additional product photo it opens 2 modal windows. One from venobox and one form magnific popup which I believe is defauld lightroom plugin for Loose template.
Can you advise me how to turn off magnificPupup specifically for product details page?
