I don't know if it has been requested before, but I didn't find it in the recent topics. Wouldn't it be cool to have a checkbox next to the date selection to select today's date. Saves some time when uploading pictures of the same day or the previous' day spotting trip :) |

Or simply get it out of the exif data of the photo:
exif_data['DateTimeOriginal'] |

Wait where would I enter "exif_data['DateTimeOriginal']" on the upload page? Thanks! |

It can only be done for the administrator to include this on the backend of their website :) |

Yeah that's why I'd be cool for us to have that checkbox since we aren't admins ;-) |

Adding boxes and options isn't as easy as it seems as it requires code changes to the site. A lot of people also decide to not include exif setting when photos are exported so the automatic option isn't very viable either. I never mind the extra 5 seconds it takes to select the date when uploading. |

@André,
It's as simple as it seems: Simple if statement should declare if the exif date is filled in yes or no.
public function getphotodate($img) { $exif = exif_read_data($img,'IFD0'); if(isset($exif['DateTimeOriginal'])) { $date = $exif['DateTimeOriginal']; return $date; } }
