hi,

Is there a way to create a dynamic album with geotagged pictures ?

I wish to display a map with all with all geotagged pictures of my gallery?

    If this is not a field the search covers (don't remember never used geo tagging) it gets hard. also the info is pretty different so there is no value to search for. I would suggest to write a script to check if the field is filled with something and if add a special tag (e.g. "geotagged") to the images in question. Then you could seach for the tag and create the dynamic album.

    Does the standard search allow searching of EXIF data? This could be helpful for multiple reasons, not just creating dynamic albums.

    It does, through the "custom" field search.

    Gotcha, will have to delve into it a bit more then. The search function has always been mostly foreign to me, heh.

    I have a look on search options.
    We are allowed to search values on lat/long fields, but we are not allowed to search empty/not empty values on these fields.

    Could point me to the right direction to create a script ?

    My needs :
    create an vitual album obj (not stored in database, or as dynamic one) with all geotagged pictures.
    with that, I know how to use googlemap plugin.

    I guess the search engine is not built to search for "nothing" ;-)

    I suppose if you had NULL in that field you possible could search for that somehow or at least via code. You know you can setup dynamic albums via the object model, too.

    hi

    I'm trying to find what I am looking for...

    btw : there is a broken link in documentation (http://www.zenphoto.org/documentation/li_classes.html page) :
    http://www.zenphoto.org/2008/04/how-to-read-the-zenphoto-functions-guide/ returns a 404 error.

    http://www.zenphoto.org/documentation/li_classes.html still does work. You find the classes on the right to choose from.

    The other link is outdated for years. Where did you find it? but just replace the date part with "news" and you still get it.
  • vincent3569 Member, Translator
    I found the 2nd link in the page given by the 1st one.
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    Ah, okay, I see. That template is static so will be fixed when I generate the next documentation.

    We would have to add "reserved words" to the search parameters to represent `empty` and `not empty` (and maybe `NULL` and `not NULL`)

    Should be possible, but I doubt we could make it so those terms were localized. Could use symbols for them as well to avoid the language issues.

    Best to open a ticket requesting the feature.
