hi, I want to use the iptc module here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/download.php?group_id=7130&atid=357130&file_id=126177&aid=1165721 As mentioned in this article: On installation it complains that: Is there anything I can do to fix this? -- |

1. the urls you've copied in r the same
2. iptc is now part of the exif module according to my knowledge, so why wouldn't you simply use that?

It doesn't appear to support writing the iptc/exif data back to the original file. This is of critical importance to me.

yes, that's right.
I've just checked the source of this module. This is not compatible with 2.1, needs to be updated.
Or you can just wait for an official mod to support this feature..somebody is workin on it (or should be) afaik. You can grab info about this on codex/forum.
To make this mod compatible with 2.1 you should change quitesome things,
eg
$this->setRequiredCoreApi(array(0, 8));
$this->setRequiredModuleApi(array(0, 8));
+ all instances of
if ($ret->isError() etc..
to check the apichanges you should check out the dev docs

That attachment is from http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&group_id=7130&atid=357130&aid=1165721
and is quite old.. I haven't looked at the code, but probably that module doesn't do anything the current exif module (yes, exif module has some iptc functionality) does.

Yes I know about this, but without full IPTC write capabilities its no use to me. I've just found the wiki on the module your talking about and its one of the features that they hope to implement soon. I supose I shall just have to wait! Maybe I will help them after I graduate!
cheers for ur help!
