Thumbnail Grid borders + image captions

Hi,

A couple of issues that I cannot seem to resolve - have read thru the documentation. Using a combination of CE4 Pages, Gallery, Auto Index and Publisher, so not sure if this is the right forum.

Reference:

1. On galleries published thru Publisher, I cannot seem to be able to suppress the display of Image Captions on the Large Image display. This gallery: http://satisharikkath.com/galleries/people/ was exported from CE4 gallery, uploaded via FTP and works as expected (shows only Title). All the other galleries on this site were published from Publisher and are still showing the Caption on the Large Image display. I have checked the Image Info pane and the Output Settings fields but cannot find the problem.
2. In the Thumbnail Grid in all the galleries, I cannot seem to get the thumbnail borders to show up (set to show in white in the Appearance pane Thumbnail Grid section), even though curiously they appear in the iPad display e.g. http://satisharikkath.com/galleries/black-n-white/.

Thanks for the help.

Regards,
Satish


Kind regards,
Satish

Re: Thumbnail Grid borders + image captions

1. Check Output Settings > Publisher Settings > Metadata and remove the metadata token from either Title or Caption

Not sure about your second issue yet...

Re: Thumbnail Grid borders + image captions

Rod, tried that already (so the Caption field is blank in the Publisher Setup > Metadata Outlets) and re-exported the gallery as a new template, using this new template in the Publisher settings does not help.

Re: Thumbnail Grid borders + image captions

Re: Thumbnail Grid borders + image captions

If you check the Thumbnail Border box, you'll see the border on the image only if you're using the non-Iconic layout.

The border width settings are for the thumbnail containing cell

You're using the iconic layout so the image borders do not appear. If you want to use the Iconic layout and have borders "on" the images, set the thumbnail size so that it fills the cell container and set the border widths and colors as you like.

see this blog post for more on the new Iconic layout for Gallery: http://theturninggate.net/2014/08/ce4-u … t-15-2014/

what I tried was to mark the entire album for republishing and publish again. I will try deleting the album and re-publish and see if that makes a difference.

Tried deleting the album and re-publishing from LR, worked like a charm. Thanks!

Changed to non-Iconic layout and works well now. Initial cut of the site up now at http://satisharikkath.com/

Thanks for the help!
