Hi there

Just trying out the gallery addon again. It's looking good.

I initially thought that the image description option would show the text in the lightbox, but it shows it on the thumbnails.

That can also be useful, but it would also be great if the description could optionally instead show on the lightbox view. Then one could have longer descriptions in the gallery and not mess up the thumbnails.

I don't know if the lightbox script in use supports this, but most usually do.

Thanks heaps

Hi,

Thanks for adding your feature request here.

This feature is not implemented yet but we have an option: Caption on lightbox, so you can show the caption instead of the title.

Please go here for more information:

Thanks a lot!

Hi again
Yes, that works too thanks. I guess the suggestion should instead be to allow both title and description in the lightbox.
Otherwise this works fine, thanks.
