After updating Digikam to the 5.x.x, the flickr export apparently removes all the exif data. I am using digikam v5.3.0 on latest Debian Stretch on Intel, KDE Frameworks 5.27.0, Qt 5.7.1 (built against 5.6.1), The xcb windowing system.
At all my test images on flickr the metadata is available. Problem is not reproducible here. Can you upload the messages from the console when you upload a image to flickr? Maik
Just to understand you correctly - you mean the stdout on regular console, not some console within the digikam? If so - this is the output (the URLs and tokens omitted): kipi.plugins: Creating new ImageListViewItem with url QUrl("") for list view KIPIPlugins::KPImagesListView(0x560db1791c00) kipi.plugins: Insterting new item "DSC_5624.JPG" kipi.plugins: Creating new ImageListViewItem with url QUrl("") for list view KIPIPlugins::KPImagesListView(0x560db22a4ba0) kipi.plugins: Family status set to false kipi.plugins: Friends status set to false kipi.plugins: Public status set to false kipi.plugins: Safety level set to 1 kipi.plugins: Content type set to 1 kipi.plugins: Group name is : "" kipi.plugins: Token is : "" kipi.plugins: Public status set to true kipi.plugins: Calling auth methods kipi.plugins: Check token url: QUrl("") kipi.plugins: Request to update thumbnail for QUrl("") kipi.plugins: Request to update thumbnail for QUrl("") kipi.plugins: KIPI host send thumb ( QSize(512, 341) ) for QUrl("") kipi.plugins: Update thumb in list for QUrl("") kipi.plugins: Received new thumbnail for url QUrl("") for view KIPIPlugins::KPImagesListView(0x560db1791c00) kipi.plugins: KIPI host send thumb ( QSize(512, 341) ) for QUrl("") kipi.plugins: Update thumb in list for QUrl("") kipi.plugins: Received new thumbnail for url QUrl("") for view KIPIPlugins::KPImagesListView(0x560db22a4ba0) kipi.plugins: Token= "" kipi.plugins: Perms= "write" kipi.plugins: nsid= "" kipi.plugins: username= "" kipi.plugins: fullname= "" kipi.plugins: Token Obtained is : "" kipi.plugins: SlotTokenObtained invoked setting user Display name to "" kipi.plugins: Group name is : "" kipi.plugins: Token is : "" kipi.plugins: Group name is : "" kipi.plugins: Token written of group "" is "" kipi.plugins: List photoset invoked kipi.plugins: List photoset URL QUrl("") kipi.plugins: CheckToken finished kipi.plugins: parseResponseListPhotosets "" ... kipi.plugins: GetPhotoList finished kipi.plugins: slotPopulatePhotoSetComboBox invoked kipi.plugins: Get max file size url: QUrl("") kipi.plugins: Max upload size is "209715200" kipi.plugins: SlotUploadImages invoked kipi.plugins: Adding images QUrl("") to the list kipi.plugins: Max allowed file size is : 209715200 File Size is 14220534 digikam.dimg: "" : JPEG file identified digikam.metaengine: Loading image history "" digikam.metaengine: DateTime => Exif.Photo.DateTimeOriginal => QDateTime(2016-08-21 19:45:51.000 CEST Qt::TimeSpec(LocalTime)) digikam.metaengine: Exif color-space tag is sRGB.

If you meant some other console - I have not found any in the documentation, but I would be happy to follow instructions ;). M.
OK, I have de-selected the "write to sidecar files" option in metadata settings, and now it works. It's nice it does, but the connection between metadata saving setting and the export is far from clear.
