# hide data in certain posts

 * Hello,
 * I have my plugin set to automatically show the EXIF fields I want displayed for
   each photo when I create a post on my blog. One of these is location. Everything
   is working fine, and I’m pleased with what I have.
 * BUT…I just realized that imagery I take in my home is displaying the location
   of my house, which I definitely don’t want. So, is there a way to remove the 
   location field for specific posts. I have tried going into that specific post,
   and unchecking location in “Add EXIF to post” option menu on the sidebar, but
   that doesn’t seem to do anything.
 * As I said, I’d like to remove it from just the posts that include images I’ve
   taken at locations I don’t want to advertise (like my house and other private
   areas), but I want to keep it with other images that it’s fine to share where
   specifically the image was taken.
 * Thanks so much.
 * Josh

 * To remove Exif only from a specific post you have to uncheck the item BEFORE 
   creating the article, if you uncheck it after it doesn’t work.

 * [@steve92](https://wordpress.org/support/users/steve92/) thanks for the tip. 
   unfortunately it seems that with “location” checked or not, it still shows the
   location.

 * Remove the image from the site and also check the GPS Extif item. Now reinsert
   the image. Basically I recreate the article.
    You can rehearse at a local site.

 * It was simpler than that. I created a shortcode in my functions.php file and 
   placed it in a text widget where the EXIF data is displayed. After trying what
   you said, I remembered that I did that and saw that I hard-coded that location
   appear. Once I removed that, it worked just fine.
 * Thanks.
