Adding a field?

[GabeCovert]

I'd like to add an additional field to images in my Coppermine gallery.  Besides adding a field to the database, which files will I need to edit in order to add/edit/view an additional field?

Nevermind...  I just found the custom field section in the configuration...

Is there any way to move a custom field up into the frame with the picture and caption?

If not, is it possible to hide some of the information under the "File Information" section?

Not sure what you mean, post more details. A link to your coppermine-driven gallery might help as well, plus a screenshot what you'd like to accomplish.

Yes, there are plugins as well as mods that let you determine what you'd like to see removed.

Attached is an image of what I'm trying to accomplish, with the location of the custom field in red, in the main frame of the picture, below the title and caption.

Where is a good place to find these mods of which you've spoken?

Not a frame. In web-terms, frame refers to the use of a particular HTML element. If you just want to add some text there, you'll need to modify themes/yourtheme/theme.php. Find

If you want to actually add the content of a custom field (i.e. data pulled from the database), you'll have to come up with a more complicated hack. It would be easier if you would have done as suggested and posted a link and additional details what you actually want to see acomplished.
