vhaynes Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Hi all, does anyone know how to get image descriptions to display underneath images in a grid gallery block? I found CSS that allows you to display image titles underneath each image but descriptions have much more flexibility than titles in how you can edit them and I need that flexibility. Here is the CSS and a short video on how to use it for anyone wondering and what it looks like. It works well but it is made to display titles. A simple modification might make it reference descriptions in the gallery block instead of the titles but I am unsure how to specifically do it. Or maybe something different all together. #block-yui_3_17_2_37_1419048882075_5861 .sqs-gallery-block-grid .slide .margin-wrapper .image-slide-title { display: block; }" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LownrrdrBS4 Link to comment

Spencerjw Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I found an answer for this last week but my question was specific to the image Title, not the Description. Here's my modified code: .sqs-gallery-block-grid .slide .margin-wrapper .image-slide-title { display: block; font-size: 20px; line-height: 23px; padding-top: 5px;} I suspect if you find the proper class for the description that's being used for your template then something similar should work for you.

Justin Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 You can add your images with their descriptions to a Gallery Page. Then you can use a Summary Block on a regular page to display those images and their meta data in a grid format. Link to comment
camille1570048105 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 thanks for your answers ,,I already had the code for titles, but really can't find any way to show descriptions . . . I don't want to use summary blocks, as my pictures on this page are linked to other pages...Anyway I think I will drop the idea and just show titles ! Another question, do you know how to show titles under images, in a gallery page slideshow? Thanks again! Link to comment
edokken Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Squarespace recently released a feature so that Image Titles in a Grid Gallery Block will display under each image, however Image Descriptions will still only display when the Image is viewed in a Lightbox. Their guide on this functionality is here: https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/206544027-Using-the-Grid-Gallery-Block#toc-step-3---add-titles-and-descriptions--optional- Link to comment
