Captions/text on gallery/porfolio items

Hey gnewby,
This was marked as resolved. Were you able to find a solution?

I didn’t fully understand how to properly insert galleries using your theme, this post here helped me understand better:

Your gallery does support this, though I’m not sure how much text I can actually display?
Also I can’t figure out how to display more than 6 columns of thumbnails?

I did figure out how to display text under the image and it works great, until I put too much text. Then it overflows the page. Is there a way to fix this, even if it means shrinking the image a bit?
Also is there css I can modify the style with?

Can you post a link to your site?
Thanks,
Hannah

Thanks, here it is:

The first image in the west coast trail gallery has an example.

This is more of an issue with portrait orientation photos as there is less room for text underneath.

Try adding this to your custom css box in Theme Options > Custom CSS:

.mfp-bottom-bar {
    padding: 10px;
}

Does that work for you?
As for the 6 column thing, let me talk to the theme developer about this. Not sure what the deal is there.

Hannah

No, adding the padding only made the text go down farther off the screen, depending of course on what value I put in. The sizing of the image window doesn’t seem to take into consideration the amount of text. Changing this sounds complicated!

I’m not sure I’m seeing what you’re seeing. What browser are you using? Could you send a screenshot?

Hannah

I use both internet explorer 11 and chrome for testing.

I don’t see how to attach a screen print to this forum?

But I’ve done some experimenting with the browser size window, and sometimes it does work. It appears if the browser window is wider than it is high (like a typical widescreen monitor) it does not work, but if I resize the window to be higher than it is wide then it starts to work.

It is in the lightbox so you do have to click on the first image in the gallery I sent.

Hey,
This css will fix your lightbox with caption just add in your theme options > custom css.

img.mfp-img {
    padding: 50px 0 100px;
}
.mfp-figure:after {
    top: 50px;
    bottom: 100px;
}

.mfp-bottom-bar {
    margin-top: -86px;
}

Thanks, this will work… It’s not ideal as I would really like the text space to adjust depending on how much text there is, which would mean resizing the image too. But I expect that this is not something that is easy or perhaps even possible.

It’s all about the art of compromise, and this one will work for me!

Thanks, Glenn
