Hello all,

I have a gallery seen here: http://www.shadygallery.com/

The home page shows descriptions of the albums, how would I go about getting the same description on the album page?
So on this page for example: http://www.shadygallery.com/thumbnails.php?album=4
I'd like to have the album description under its name.

Thanks for any help you  :)

It's currently not possible with the core code. It would require a hack. You can also try using minicms: http://cpg-contrib.org/thumbnails.php?album=1

You would have to enter the info twice. The advantage, though, is you can have a short description for the regular description, and have a longer one using the minicms, so as not to clutter the home page with long album descriptions.

But I think this would be a nice thing to add to the next version of CPG, admin-settable, like SMF does it for board descriptions.

Thanks, I'll go digging in the code as a learning experience and maybe come up with a solution which I'll share here.
