Hi bangank36,
I have the caption looking how I wanted, but only with custom HTML+CSS. I'm wondering if there is a way to achieve this look natively via the SquareSpace designer ie so I don't need to customise with code.
Cheers,
Michael
Hi,
I'm currently designing a site in squarespace. I'm a documentary photographer.
I'd like to be able to customise the look of my captions as show in the attached screengrab.
I'm wondering if this is possible through the SquareSpace designer. I couldn't find a way - instead I'm using the following custom CSS/HTML:
Custom CSS
.gallery-section .gallery-caption p whenwhere::before {
// respect new line in Description textbox
content: "\A";
white-space: pre;
}
.gallery-section .gallery-caption p whenwhere {
color: #990000;
font-style: italic;
}
Custom HTML
I am using a custom <whenwhere/> element for the date/time + location part of my caption:
Walter Kruger sits in the wreckage of the Corrugated Iron Church. <whenwhere>3 January 2021. Yuwaalaraay Country / Lightning Ridge, NSW.</whenwhere>
This is entered in the Description textbox for the image. The images are displayed using a Gallery Section.
Is this possible from within the SquareSpace designer at all? I couldn't find a way through the designer to access and style gallery captions, but that could (probably) just be me.
Thanks!
Michael
