[Module] Edit/Show IPTC-Data

Missed the possibility to edit IPTC inside the gallery with no need to "reupload" the IPTC-modified image.
Have written one.

Characteristics:
- choose the IPTC-Tags you want to edit and show via admin->settings->IPTC edit
- you can also label them there as you like
- IPTC-Data is stored in thumb, resize and original file
- movies also get something like "virtual IPTC" -> they are stored in the thumb
- available via contex-menu and site-menu
- IPTC-Data shown in sidebar-block

ToDo's
- did not succeed in setting IPTC activated fields and IPTC-Labels -> User receive an info to go to admin->settings->IPTC edit to activate fields. Would like to activate all fields by default after install
- IPTC-Data-sidebar in album-overview is irritating, would like to hide it there

Great Job mr.xy!

<input type="submit" value="Speichern" id="iptcsubmit" onclick="reload()"/>
"Speichern" should be translate-able:
<input type="submit" value="<?= t("Save") ?>" id="iptcsubmit" onclick="reload()"/>

Module.info should have the additional parameters for credit and docs:

name = IPTC Edit
description = "Edit IPTC-Data"
version = 1
author_name = "mr.xy"
author_url = "http://codex.gallery2.org/User:Mr.xy"
info_url = "http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:iptcedit"
discuss_url = "http://gallery.menalto.com/forum_module_iptcedit"

Then it will have the links active on the modules page.

Cheers! and thanks for your contributions.

Just login using your forums username and password. Then you should see a edit button.

Yes this is one of the things I would like to make translatable. How would you enable this?

And in my videothumb-module this is not working:
<?php if($rectangle_thumb_active == "active"){echo '<div id="info">' . t("Module \"RectangleThumbs\" active - Thumbs may be croped to defined aspect ratio.") . '</div>';} ?>

Codex:
Have no edit-button. Only these:
User page
Discussion
Watch

May be because of the dot in my username? -> mr.xy

Moved to G3 forum

FlashYourWeb and Your Gallery with The E2 XML Media Player for Gallery2

Thanks floridave,

have changed the translatable text as you sugested. Text is shown but not accessable via translation panel. Do I have to remove and reinstall? Used the g-warning class.

Attachement in my first post is modified.

I swear I moved it the other day.... moved it again :-|

FlashYourWeb and Your Gallery with The E2 XML Media Player for Gallery2

Found the solution in bharats developer docs:
http://gallery.menalto.com/node/99826

I suppose the language maintenancs task does the same.

Gallery modules.com is a volenteer effort as well. It scans the codex for modules and if there is a .zip file in the download section it grabs that . Not sure if it does that once a day or more frequently. It also scans the gallery-contrib git repository and uses the module.info file to create a list. It is all automatic and the git repository takes precedence, I think,

Updating the module.info file would help. I would have to look at other modules to see how the description is pulled and what is wrong with this one.

G3's jquery is ancient.
You could use an iframe to load your datepicker in an external page loading modern jquery/UI in the external page.
And as long as the iframe is from the same domain, passing results via js is no problem.

Hi supersidr. Thanks for your hint and your live-model. I will try it as soon as possible in a quiet moment

you'll have to take that up w/ the jQueryUI team, I've never used datepicker beyond that demo.

All New jQuery Minislideshow for G2/G3

I've got many photos with multiple tags (IPTC keywords) as a comma-separated array, but the IPTC Edit module only displays the first in the list - is there a delimiter that can be defined for array items?

The import is working just fine - the keywords were created in Aperture and display correctly as a comma-separated list in the image info and are treated as multiple keywords. What I am trying to do is find a way to give users the ability to remove keywords/tags without giving them full read / write privileges to the album or photo (I've used the remove items module to do that). Adding keywords is not a problem, since that's built in.

While I appreciate the feedback, it's clear you've misunderstood my request a bit and assumed another cause. They fault is within the module, not the metadata - here's my issue, illustrated with screen snaps.

I've imported a photo into Gallery with three keyword/tags as display properly in screenshot below:

[img]http://downloads.macworkshops.com/iptcedit/1.jpg[/img]

With IPTC Edit, the keyword field display only the first keyword/tag, like in this screenshot:

[img]http://downloads.macworkshops.com/iptcedit/2.jpg[/img]

And when editing the keywords, again only the first keyword/tag is available like so:

[img]http://downloads.macworkshops.com/iptcedit/3.jpg[/img]

Gallery doesn't give individual permissions to only edit tags - so I've used the "Remove Items" module to hide the main photo editing tools but would like users to be able to add/remove tags and captions using IPTC edit - but it doesn't read the whole list of keywords.

Is this a bug? Can it be fixed or tweaked, so that all items in the array of embedded keywords are available to edit, much like the core Gallery module reads them into the DB?

That's my issue, illustrated.

Fixed.

minor Changes:
- better internationalization
- datepicker
