How to edit the image Metadata and Details

Imagely allows you to edit your image thumbnails directly in the gallery or even edit the metadata associated with the image. This guide will go through how to edit images and even display some of your image metadata directly in the lightbox.

How to edit gallery images

With Imagely, after you add images to a gallery, you have a few options to edit the way your image thumbnails look. To access these settings, go into the gallery you want to edit > click the ⁝ that appears when you hover over an image > select Edit Image.

The image will appear in a popup with a few options at the bottom. Just hover any of the buttons at the bottom to see more details:

• Rotate: Rotate the thumbnail 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise
• Crop: Select the crop area for the thumbnail
• Restore from backup: Restore the thumbnail to a previous version

How to view metadata and edit the image details

So what is metadata? Metadata is the “data about data” that provides descriptive information about a digital image, such as camera settings, date, time, location, and copyright.

By default, Imagely should automatically import all metadata after upload. If you find your image metadata is missing, you can import the metadata from the Bulk Actions dropdown after selecting one or more images.

To view the metadata for your images, just click the ⁝ on the image, then select View Meta to display the available metadata.

You can even edit some image details by selecting the Edit Data option after clicking the ⁝

And that’s it! Now you know how to view and edit your image metadata or details.
