    Hi,
    I have inherited a website with WPPA+ and notice that none of the pictures displayed in galleries show the author name or picture description.
    Is there a setting to cover this please or a default way to do this?

    Example: I’d like to display:-
    Picture taken by Joe Bloggs
    Picture name – Waves breaking on the shore

    or something like that.
    Any suggestios welcomed.

    You can make a standard content for the photo description field like:

    Picture taken by w#owner
Picture name - w#name

    Then:
    – Replace the text in Table IX-D5 on the Photo Albums -> Settings admin page with your text.
    – Tick Table IX-D3. This will place the text as default description when new photos are added.
    – To update the existing photos, run the procedure in Table VIII-B4.2: Apply New Photodesc by clicking on the Start! button and wait until it reads: Ready 0 (meaning done and zero to go).
    – Make sure the photo description will be shown: Table II-B6, Table II-D3, and possibly the description boxes in Table II-G

    Now I’ve had a look at this, just a little confused by the order of doing this.
    If I create a new album first, where would I put the

    Picture taken by w#owner
    Picture name – w#name

    or am I missing something?

    In IX-D5 I have


    <div class=”wppa-more”>
    Camera info
    </div>


    <div class=”wppa-dtl” style=”display:none;” >
    Hide Camera info
    </div>

    <div class=”wppa-dtl” style=”display:none;”>
    <br />
    <style>
    .wppa-label { padding: 0 3px !important; border: none !important; }
    .wppa-value { padding: 0 3px 0 12px !important; border:none !important; }
    </style>
    <table style=”margin:0; border:none;” >
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >Date Time</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#0132</td></tr>
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >Camera</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#0110</td></tr>
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >Focal length</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#920A</td></tr>
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >F-Stop</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#829D</td></tr>
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >ISO Speed Rating</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#8827</td></tr>
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >Exposure program</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#8822</td></tr>
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >Metering mode</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#9207</td></tr>
    <tr><td class=”wppa-label” >Flash</td><td class=”wppa-value” >E#9209</td></tr>
    </table>
    </div>

    Do I just replace that?

    Is it correct that if IX-D3 isn’t ticked, then IX-D5 won’t be applied?

    Just replace. The existing code is just an example

    Yes, correct
