addon: modified copy_folder.php gets post date for each image from EXIF data

[jfk]

Well, the title says it al, doesn't it?

I took the existing copy_folder.php and added some code to it, so that it sets the post date and time for each image according to the exposure date/time of its EXIF data. Additionally, it sets the initial title of each image to its date and time instead of the file name. I think it is marginally more descriptive to have a post with title "September 16, 2005, 09:05:13" than one that's just called "img_6591.jpg".

This addon was developed and tested for pixelpost 1.4.2.

(It's just what I needed in order to convert my existing photolog to a pixelpost-powered site.)

jfk,

not having much luck here. After I install it, the admin backend will not publish all the addons. It only publishes up to you addon.

Odd.

What do you think is going on?

Brian, you're absolutely right. I've found some faults in my code. I've corrected them, but I'll do some more testing this time. Expect a new release within a few days...

Sorry about that, but thanks for being a beta-tester ;-)
