Category descriptions...

[yaniv]

hey all 

In the main album list, if you add a category description it goes to the line underneath, so it adds it under the album title, is there anyway to add them on the same line, but so that it doesnt affect any other parts of the gallery?

thanks for all your help.

I link to your gallery or at least a screenshot with the issue circled will help but you will probably need to edit $template_album_list_cat and $template_album_list. If you don't have them in your theme.php, copy them from the sample>theme.php and paste into yours then edit to your needs.

you will probably need to edit $template_album_list_cat and $template_album_list

If you dont' have $template_album_list in your theme.php, copy and paste it from the sample theme.php

Move the {ALB_DESC} tag from it's current location to

Code Select Expand

<span class="alblink"><a href="{ALB_LINK_TGT}"><b>{ALBUM_TITLE}</b></a></span>{ALB_DESC}

and edit accordingly to suit your needs. You may also have to edit $template_album_list_cat in the same manner.
