Is there a way to change the date assosciated with an image?
I would like to upload a bunch of images and then have displayed according to the date taken. From what I can tell, the image date tag is only for the date uploaded, and since this will all be uploaded on the same day, that won’t really help. Is there a plugin that will allow me to change the image date or is there another way to accomplish this?

soo_image will read EXIF tags from the image, including date taken.
Not sure about the steps from there, but the plugin might even offer some sorting capability. Worth checking out.

You could try setting the image’s date taken as the caption and use the <txp:images /> tag to sort the output by caption.

jra_link_admin adds a Date posted feature to the link tab. It can be easily modified to do the same for the image tab, or for both the link and the image tab
(which is what I did for my site. I don’t mind sharing my modification, but I don’t know proper etiquette when you have only modified someone else’s code minimally. It’ not their fault if I messed it up, but its still all essentially their work. Plus I only hacked it. I couldn’t provide support.)
