Has anyone worked out how to get the IPTC fields headline and caption to map into the title and notes?

That would be really cool...

Thanks

Now there is EXIF data support and IPTC isn't so usefull as those.
Title and notes you add manually.

The headline and caption fields could contain the same info, would just let you do it off line when your editing the photos. kinda cool to do that...

I've asked for this before (http://pixelpost.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=674&highlight=iptc), but it isn't a priority. I've seen plug-ins to do this for other gallery type scripts, though none of them implements keywords correctly, but not had time to work on anything for PixelPost.

I'm OK with waiting. My images are tagged, so when it becomes available -- or when I have time to try again -- there's nothing lost. Meanwhile, I'm going with minimal descriptions. :D

The IPTC data should be available in the $exif_result array. You could easily modify my extra_exif.php to add tags for that data. If you do, send me the changes and I will include it in the next release. I would do it, but none of my photos have IPTC data ;)

To see everything in the $exif_result array, uncomment the line

//echo "<pre>"; print_r($exif_result); echo"</pre>";

in my extra_exif.php addon and it will dump the entire array at the top of your page. Then you can see exactly what array variables you need for your IPTC data.
