![]() Mac Photos title/caption exporting woes Adding captions to my photos in the Mac Photos app I did manage to figure it all out after a couple hours, but I don’t really like the solution I came up with. It turned out that there were actually several issues. Since I am lazy, I decided to finally try to fix the problem, rather than manually re-enter all the captions in the WordPress editor. This workflow has probably been broken for some time and I just ignored it, but today it really annoyed me when I took the time to label all of my photos, only to see them come up without captions in WordPress. I like this setup, because it works well with most themes and plugins. I used to have it set to use the filename of an image as the title in WordPress, and the IPTC caption as the caption, description, and alt text. Several years ago I created a simple WordPress plugin called Image Meta to help with the import of this info, so that I can choose what I want to do with it. It used to be the case that when I exported the pictures from Photos (or maybe it was iPhoto), that the titles would be stored in the IPTC captions information in the jpeg file. Finally, I export the pictures from Photos, so that I can upload them to my blog. Next, I go through all the pictures in the album and give them each a title/caption, so that I know what I am looking at. Then I create a smart album based on the favorites and the date. shortcut key to quickly favorite the best pictures. My normal workflow is to first go through all the pictures and choose the best, which is usually somewhere around 30-40% of the photos, especially in cases where I am taking action shots, since I will frequently take several in a row. I used my Canon DSLR over the weekend, and I imported all the pictures into the Photos app on my Mac. Today I wanted to make a post on my blog with a bunch of pictures.
