EXIF Information display in Lightview Plus or Lightbox

  • Hi.

    Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

    I’ve seen it done on this page:
    https://kruyt.org/

    He specifies the code below: but where does he put it?!?!?!

    What I mean with thickbox, is I auto load it in the plugin. no need to embed in my theme. And thickbox is already by default in WP2.5

    code for using the tb in wp:

    wp_enqueue_script('thickbox');
add_action('wp_head', 'thickbox_css');

function thickbox_css() {

    $thickbox_csspath = get_bloginfo('wpurl')."/wp-includes/js/thickbox/thickbox.css";
    $thickboxscript = "\n";
    print($thickboxscript);
}

    Then:

    And here some code I use to put the exif info that wp 2.5 now reads from files in the title, so the ‘boxes’ can use it to. To display exif.

    // Get EXIF from WP and set in title
$metadata = wp_get_attachment_metadata($id);
$image_meta = $metadata[image_meta];

//print_r ($metadata);

if($image_meta[camera]) $title = ”.$image_meta[camera].’ ‘;
if($image_meta[focal_length]) $title .= ‘@ ‘.$image_meta[focal_length].’ mm ‘;
if($image_meta[shutter_speed]) $title .= ‘- 1/’.(1/($image_meta[shutter_speed])).’ sec’;
if($image_meta[aperture]) $title .= ‘, ?/’.$image_meta[aperture].”;
if($image_meta[iso]) $title .= ‘, ISO ‘.$image_meta[iso].”;
if($image_meta[created_timestamp]) $title .= ‘ on ‘.date(’j F, Y’,$image_meta[created_timestamp]).”;

  • Hello ! I’ve had the same issue as you.
    But i’ve solved it !

    check this url : https://www.albumihai.ro
    click on a photo and see the exif data.
    I have made some modifications into the script, i don’t know if i’m “authorized” to do this, or if is secure what i’ve made, but here is the solution.

    go to : /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery
    and edit: nggfunctions.php

    and look after “

    <?php

if(preg_match('#' . basename(__FILE__) . '#', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) { die('You are not allowed to call this page di
rectly.'); }

    this should be on the first two lines.

    After that paste this function code:

    function show_meta_exif($id){

require_once(NGGALLERY_ABSPATH.'/lib/nggmeta.lib.php');

global $wpdb;

// let's get the image data
$picture  = new nggImage($id );
// let's get the meta data'
$meta = new nggMeta($picture->absPath);
$exifdata = $meta->get_EXIF();

$exif = $exifdata[camera] .' @ '. $exifdata[focal_length]. ' - '.$exifdata[shutter_speed].', ' . $exifdata[aperture]
 .', ISO  '.$exifdata[iso];
return $exif;

}

    And now search for something like:

    $out .= '<a href="'.$link.'">description).'" '.$thumbcode.' >';
    in the same nggfunctions.php file

    and comment that line with two “//” slashes
    and paste before that line, this code:

    $out .= '<a href="'.$link.'" title="'.stripslashes(show_meta_exif($picture->pid)).'" '.$thumbcode.' >';

    THAT’S IT!

    Now when you click on the photo , the title information will be something like this:

    title=”Canon EOS 400D DIGITAL @ 49 mm – 1/200 sec, F 13, ISO 100e”

    Hi!

    Sounds very cool, but I cannot find this line in my nggfunctions.php:

    $out .= '<a href="'.$link.'">description).'" '.$thumbcode.' >';

    I use NextGEn Gallery 0.98. Can you update your solution?

    Thx very much,
    Johannes

    it’s work! many thank to charlesleo and mihai2k ??
