Geotagging with Maperture

I have been using Mapeture the Aperture Plugin for some time however, for some strange reason SmugMug will not display the location of the photographs on the "Around the World" map.

If I manually tag the photographs within SmugMug they appear fine..

Any ideas?

    I don't see any geo-data:

    Also, the gallery must have Hello World, set to Yes, you have it set to no at this point.

    Just checked this end and I am "Hello World" (see attachment)



    Also, the same output was uploaded to Flickr and the GeoTagging seems to be working there

    I have uploaded the image from my Flickr account into my SmugMug gallery to see if this helps

    I changed it back to "Hello World = Off" which is my default.

    I decided to give up with the Maperture plugin. After reading various site it appears that Maperture does have some compatibility problems, some says its SmugMug some say its the plugin.

    Either way it will not work so I gave up - shame really as it works so well

    Scott,

    Just wanted to drop a quick note that we have officially released Maperture Pro and features many user requested features & fixes.

    The GPS metadata version export bug unfortunately is out of our control and up to Apple to fix Aperture to allow modifications to the EXIF fields from within Aperture. The reason why the GPS tags do not export with versions, but will with masters, is due to Aperture flagging the EXIF additions on the master which are not carried over to the version export. Once Aperture allows EXIF editing, or just even GPS metadata editing, you will bee able to export versions edited with Maperture along with the embedded geotags. Apple has been made aware of this issue some time ago and are awaiting a response or update to resolve this. Thanks for your patience and we are proactively looking into a workaround!

    Check it out here.

    Thanks!
