[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Getting Links inside description area?

The image description field accepts html so it will accept links to anywhere you like. My descriptions have tables in them but I have tested links before and they worked ok.

Then something must be wrong on our end because entering HTML only ends up displaying the code not the html. Is there something I’m doing wrong? Some special way to enter the html?

Do you have a link to a page where this porblem is happening?

Yes

Here you can see it in the alt description https://is.gd/jdrzRT

Thanks so much

I think its working how its supposed to but it seems to be the class ngg-imagebrowser-desc (or someting related to it) thats causing you the no-link issue.

One way to try fixing this would be to remove the call to that class from the php program doing the display (it’ll be in the view directory but I couldn’t tell which one your using).

Changing the line
<div class="ngg-imagebrowser-desc"><p><?php echo $image->description ?></p></div>
to
<div><p><?php echo $image->description ?></p></div>
would seem to work in firebug testing. Could probably remove ‘div’ and ‘p’ as well.

I couldn’t test this on my site due to customising I’ve done. Don’t forget to make a backup if you decide to try this.

Thanks so much I’ll give it a try.

I’ve tried the above and several HTML syntax’s, but I just cant get the links to function. Would also like them to open in a new browser. Any thoughts?
