[Plugin: NextGen Gallery] Enable Alt/Title Text

  • How do I enable (display) the Alt/Title text feature? I’d like the titles to display during the slideshow (I don’t care for them to be displayed while in list view).

    I don’t see any sort of tick box in the NGGallery Options page, where I assume it’d be.

    The Gallery Tags demo page is exactly what I want.

    Using WP 3.1.1
    with:
    NGG 1.7.4
    GalleryView 0.5.2
    Lightbox 2.9.2

  • I would also like to know this

    I would like to know this too…

    I can see the Description field be displayed in the Slideshow but it messes up the Slideshow interface button (e.g. longer descriptions make the full-screen button disappear) so I want to display the shorter Alt/Text field instead.

    I think this may be somewhere in nggfunctions.php… anyone know what would need to be edited?

    I tried changing from “description” to “alttext”:

    $picturelist[$key]->caption = ( empty($picture->description) ) ? ' ' : html_entity_decode ( stripslashes(nggGallery::i18n($picture->description)) );
        $picturelist[$key]->description = ( empty($picture->description) ) ? ' ' : htmlspecialchars ( stripslashes(nggGallery::i18n($picture->description)) );
        $picturelist[$key]->alttext = ( empty($picture->alttext) ) ?  ' ' : htmlspecialchars ( stripslashes(nggGallery::i18n($picture->alttext)) );

    but that did not seem to have any effect.
