Despite being on opposite coasts of the US, I got the family member photographer to check his camera settings. Indeed, it seems his camera’s clock is somehow 10 months slow. Which he’s somehow never noticed. I wonder if it’s been like that ever since he got the camera new.

And I used to get perturbed if my own camera’s clock was off because I forgot the Daylight/Standard time change and my photo timestamps were off an by an hour. Sigh.

Thus… Close this trouble ticket.

The dates in photo Metadata are the same shown in the panel listing the photos in the gallery.

Photos posted in the past couple years are I believe all from the same camera.

Unfortunately, I don’t have access to the camera in question, so cannot easily find out if somehow its clock settings are somehow 10 months off.

The 3.50 and 3.54 updates both messed up the gallery and album page layouts on a website that I maintain for a photographer friend. Luckily the 3.50 “update” was not the nightmare that seems to have affected other NGG users as we’re only using the basic plugin.

But both times I had to go into the plugin settings and restore various layout settings that the updates reverted to defaults. And even after doing that, the Basic Compact Album layout was seriously messed up after the 3.54 update. The only way I could get things to not look like trash was to apply a bunch of custom CSS to the website to override what the plugin was applying.

It’s great that the NGG authors are trying to fix stuff, but could they not break things while they’re at it? Prior plugin updates over the past several years have not caused this sort of chaos.
