Hi,

I exported multiple images with Caption or Description from Lightroom but it doesnt show up in my X3 description. Any idea why?

I can only determine that if you have a link to one of the images for me, so I can check if the data is stored in the image, and if so where.

I would have to ask the obvious also:
  • Sure the EXIF was included when you exported the images from lightroom?
  • You did not run the images through some JPG optimizer application before upload?
  • You have titles and descriptions enabled in the page's gallery layout somehow?
Also to be clear: The X3 panel will not show captions/descriptions from the image IPTC, although the X3 website itself should. This will change in X3.24.0, where also the panel will show IPTC meta data stored within the image.

  • Sure the EXIF was included when you exported the images from lightroom? - Yes, I can see the description in the finder.
  • You did not run the images through some JPG optimizer application before upload? - No, after LR i uploaded it to x3
  • You have titles and descriptions enabled in the page's gallery layout somehow? - Yes, hover showing description.

That means descriptions are showing? Where are they not showing where you expect them to show? In the popup? Directly in the gallery layout? Anyway, I guess you better sort out your hosting first!
