Captions?

Hi @blackboxz
Currently, there is no option to show the description in gallery.
But, we will add the option in our future update to display the file description as well.

That’s a good idea, because who wants filename’s with extension to being seen? Even when hovering over the image and in the lightbox also?
No one is going to rename all of them? So that’s the main reason I’m not using the plugin at the moment. I want to show the GD description field as a layer and/or outside the image at the bottom. I’m sure you can create a nice, modern solution for this.
Thank you,

Hello,
You changed something in 1.2.2 but I’m not 100% content about it.
The lightbox view still shows the filename which I don’t want to show and together with the description (caption) it’s not shown BENEATH the image but mostly OVER the image what I don’t like either.
In gallery view the filename is still also shown when hovering over the images, I don’t like it.
Can’t you create a toggle for filename showing yes or no (gallery view and lightbox)?
And maybe for the gallery view a choice for displaying the description as layer or beneath the image?
Can you give it another try?
That would be great,
Tia,

Hi @blackboxz
We have released a new update v1.2.4
In the new update you can show the file name or description as the caption on image hover overlay.
Please update your plugin to the latest version. This will fix the issue.

Thank you very much, it’s almost perfect…because filename is still shown in the lightbox, please remove it there or design a toggle in settings, please?
And to make it 100% perfect, show the caption in the lightbox beneath the image and not over the image.
Thank you!

Hello,
Question, can we get rid off the ugly filenames in the gallery lightbox in the future? That would be very nice. I can’t find a setting to turn them off.
Or maybe you would be so nice to provide a code-snippet to remove them?
Thank you!

Please?

So you can’t do this? It’s not possible?
Is there a possibility you can provide a code snippet to hide the filename in the lightbox?

Hi,
Use the below css code in the Admin Dashboard > Google Drive > Settings > Appearance > Custom CSS to hide the lightbox file name:

.igd-lightbox .lg-sub-html {
display: none;
}

Thank you very much…but I want to keep the captions in the lightbox…can you make that possible?
With this code both disappear filename + caption

I changed the CSS code like this to achieve what I wanted..

.igd-lightbox .lg-sub-html h4 {
display: none;
}
