I have searched the forums and don't see a direct answer. I have "Yes" checked in my VBgallery options for "EXIF" info but they don't show. What do I have to do to get the EXIF information to show up on my website?

I have "show exif" options checked but there is no option or a way to select what I want to show up. It shows the list but it doesn't give me an option to choose.

Tag the top option "hold" and hit the shift key and select all w/ mouse.

SlipNslide281,

If you view your PHP info, make sure that you see "'--enable-exif" up in your Configure Command section. If you don't see that then you server's PHP install won't be able to extact the PHP info.

You shouldn't have to select all of the fields... if you have it set to "Yes" then you can either not select any fields (which will act as a global and show all of the fields) or you can select the individual fields that you want.

Finally, make sure that the image you're uploading actually has EXIF data in it.

Would I just edit my php.ini file and uncomment these lines?

exif.encode_unicode = ISO-8859-15
exif.decode_unicode_motorola = UCS-2BE
exif.decode_unicode_intel = UCS-2LE
exif.encode_jis =
exif.decode_jis_motorola = JIS
exif.decode_jis_intel = JIS

With PHP do you have to restart it, or it just does it when you save the php.ini file? I'm running PHP Ver. 4.4.0

I'm running on FBSD.

I just installed Jhead. Will that work?
