Mine looks like this! So I still see no description only the title? The first four photos at the top yes they do (i didnt use the gallery option I built those out) Due to the size of the photos used the gallery option for the photos I screenshot and I see no description? I am assuming it is due to the template Edited December 13, 2021 by LindseyLeist Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 (edited) Its the bottom four that don't have the description showing, sorry I overlooked that. Gallery images show description on lightbox but this should work in custom css: /*gallery grid page image titles showing*/.collection-type-gallery.gallery-design-grid .slide .slide-meta { display: block !important;}.title {margin: 0; font-size: 13px; color: ##003366; padding: 1%;line-height: 120%;text-align: center;color: #888888;} Edited December 13, 2021 by derricksrandomviews Link to comment
creedon Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Ah I see now. Er I don't see as the case may be. The photos at the bottom. The description is seen in only certain places.

creedon Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Quote I did use that but it didnt help as I think I need a code but will reread I think I can sum it up. For the particular design you've chosen the description only shows when the lightbox is active. If you want to keep the current design then yes you would need code, CSS and perhaps Javascript. You would need to reenter the descriptions in this non-existant code. I'm not aware of code for this effect. On a quick look it appears that you might be able to get away with straight CSS to add the descriptions. Here is the rudiment of the effect. This is not a solution. .image-slide-title::after { content : '[enter your description here]'; display : block; } Find my contributions useful?

creedon Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) A little more specific. Still not a solution. /* shared properties here */ #block-yui_3_17_2_1_1639350164630_122741 .sqs-gallery-design-grid-slide .image-slide-title::after { display : block; } /* individual properties here */ #block-yui_3_17_2_1_1639350164630_122741 .sqs-gallery-design-grid-slide:nth-child( 1 ) .image-slide-title::after { content : '[enter your description here]'; } Edited December 14, 2021 by creedon Find my contributions useful?
