I am using the latest zenphoto combined with an old gallerific theme.
I have a similar problem to this post. My website has some empty titles for some of the images.
Every time I use meta refresh it replaces empty titles with image file names.
I have hidden any metadata I think is relevant via the admin options but this issue persists.
Is there any quick workaround. (Note: changing the way the theme calls the image title in javascript could cause more problems than it solves)
Can anyone guide me on where this can be disabled? thanks for your help.

If you import image either via backend upload or ftp Zenphoto will use either the title that is set in the meta data or the filename.

If you refresh metadata Zenphoto replaces all fields using the data found in the meta data. If that is the file name for the title it will use that. The meta data refresh does overwrite exisiting fields.

THis actually has nothing to do with what theme is used. Or did I misunderstood the issue?

okay... so don't use meta refresh (ever) if you want to use manually re-edited titles?

..and I was mistaken. I refreshed one album only which had empty titles. I think it does replace all when you refresh.

Actually disabling ("do not process") the meta fields should prevent that. It seems it doesn't, I just tried. Probably a bug but sbillard would have to confirm. I will create a ticket.
