Plugin: Highslide (Image only) with description?

[Maultrommel]

I'm trying to display some pictures within the an article and when you click on it there's a detail view.

I chose highslide (Image only), because it adapts do the size of the pictures. I enabled "displaydescription", but there's no text and no gray navigation buttons.

However, if I do the same within my gallery, I have the most precious image with description and these cool navigation...

So either there's something missing in the plugin - or I'm too stupid to configure it right. Can anybody help?

Hi, there is:
- higslide js, where you can run the slideshow and where you have buttons for next/previous images
- highslide (only image) where there is no buttons, because of possible conflicts with other images in the site (e.g. if phoca gallery plugin is used in more articles and they are displayed e.g. on frontpage) so the slideshow which can be used in component cannot be used in plugin

Hello everyone.
I have question like in topic. Can I somehow enable description in Highslide (Image only) when Highslide Gallery appear with buttons? I talk about version of Highslide View without modalbox inside. Only buttons of highslide and title of image. As you can see on example image I attached. Problem is... I need add description in this view. Maybe under title maybe under image. But, as I see this description is not loaded in this view. Why? Highslide have space for html description. I should turn on it somewhere, or maybe you must add this option in code? This is possible to do?

BTW. You see new highslide v4.1 view with additional thumbstrip in open image view? Can this version highslide be updated to phoca?

Thanks!

Had the same problem. Wanted to add the description to the highslide (image only).
I solved my problem by altering the code (sorry Jan) of Jcom./com_phocagallery/views/category/tmpl/default.php
From line 229 my code was changed to:

Code: Select all

if ( $this->tmpl['detailwindow'] == 5) {
	if ($this->tmpl['displaytitleindescription'] == 1) {
		echo '<div class="highslide-heading">';
		echo $value->title;
	        if ($value->description!="") { echo " - ".$value->description;}
	echo '</div>';
	}
// if ($this->tmpl['displaydescriptiondetail'] == 1) {
// echo '<div class="highslide-caption">';
// echo $value->description;
// echo '</div>';
// }

Be aware ! when you update your component, all changed code will be lost !

Great solution! Please Jan include something like this in future PhocaGallery versions.

Works like it should be.

And please again look around about thumbstrip.

[Jan]

Great, I will add it into the next version, Jan

One more suggestion. Description should have own class (css). Because now is bold like a title .. should be normal.

Jan do you update Highslide to new version?

Hi together, I have one more Question

in the Picture of Randal, there is the navbar and between the move and close symbol there is the expand symbol, but on my gallery it is always disabled. I am wondering how i can enable it, because i assume then the full Picture shold be shown?
