I really want the EXIF data to be always shown rather than make users clicking the "Show Details" link. It's not too much of an annoyance but it is annoying. Is there any tweak to do this? I've tried to do it myself for hours and have come up with nothing. Thanks.
Check out function generate_exif_table in gallery.php, around line 824
See this code? if (!$_SESSION["plogger_details"]){ $table_data .= ' style="display: none;"'; }
In english, this code says "If the plogger_details session variable (which keeps track of whether or not the EXIF table is shown) is false, hide the table with this CSS code (style: display: none).
Just delete those three lines and it will always be shown.
