I am able to see the photo description when I open it (modal box).
-Is it possible to show description without open the photo?
-And in slideshow how to make description visible?

(version 2.1.0 RC)

Hi, you can see the description e.g. in overlib box...

for the slideshow, there is no option to display the description yet.

Is there a way to display the overlib effect on thumbs AND the title in shadowbox slideshow ?

(cause when I set overlib ON, it deactivates the title on Shadowbox )


Thanks

Hi, this is because of possible conflict disabled.

Shadowbox uses the title tag for displaying the title in shadowbox detail window, but title tag displays the title over the thumbnails so if overlib is enabled the overlib is displayed and title is displayed over the overlib...

so there is shadowbox x overlib conflict... so the title is disabled.

Thank you for your reply Jan,

so the only answer I could give to my client is : "it's impossible"

sad to be a newbie :-)

Impossible is nothing :-)

you can enable the title for shadowbox, but then you get the title over the overlib, so it is your choice :-)

see:
components\com_phocagallery\views\category\tmpl\default.php

line 171:

Code: Select all

if ($value->type == 2) {
   //    if ($value->overlib == 0) {
      echo ' title="'. $value->title.'"';
   //}
}
