Hi,
Could someone tell me why the Page Copy (Md) under Content/Description in Lightroom isn't showing up on the page using the CRG Template set under Client Response Gallery Settings, please?
I created a template for the 'Your Albums' page that lists the client's galleries. It should include some Page Copy (Md) that I added in Lightroom. I exported and uploaded the gallery template. It's selected as the CRG Template set under Client Response Gallery Settings. However, the Page Copy isn't showing up.
Thanks.

The text is not meant to show up. That template is there to style the page only.
template text, by default, never shows up in Publisher created pages (which is what the "Your Albums" page is.)
However, you can add text in the Localisations area of ttg-be > CRG admin > Settings > Localisations > Manage Localisation
Under "Client Accounts" look for TEXT_ASSIGNED_ALBUMS
the problem is that the text will come out as an H2 heading. But there's a way around that. You can wrap the text you add in html paragraph tags, but you'll also need to add inline styling so that the text won't be as large as the H2 heading that's already set for the text. This works:
Albums Assigned to You <p style="font-size:12px;">Look, here's some more text</p>Rod

Thanks Rod,
In that case, I'll have to use the Banner or Profile setting to have my icon on the 'Your Albums' page, but I always put the icon on the right.
If I choose Banner, there's too much white space (my icon is square).
Is there a way to get the icon on the right when selecting the Identity Plate Role: Profile?

You were putting your icon in the Page Copy (md) section of the template? And now you want to place it in the masthead?
Can you use html to place it in the TEXT_ASSIGNED_ALBUMS field?
Albums Assigned to You <img src="/img/logo.jpg" style="float:left; padding: 0 8px 8px 0;"><p style="font-size:12px;">Look, here's some more text</p>Perhaps Ben has some better idea...

Thanks Rod,
I tried that, but the icon just sits hard against the box line around the list of links below it, but I didn't use padding, so will give it a try.

That works well with the padding. Thanks Rod.
I'd like to be able to use the identity plate in the Identity Plate Role: Profile setting. It would be much better, but I can't get the icon to sit on the right. As a banner, my square icon just leaves too much white space across the top of the page.

just poking around with the browsers inspector, it looks like you could probably rearrange the two in the masthead using custom css.
The ID of the image is #profile-icon and the ID of the site heading and subheading is #profile-labels.
A combination of floats and positioning would probably do it.
You'd also may need to write some media queries for smaller displays, depending on where you'd want the icon to appear on mobile devices.

Thanks Rod. I might be able to manage the css, but I don't know about "media queries for smaller displays".
.the-block {
width: 200px;
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 1024px) {
/* reset appearance for small displays */
.the-block {
width: auto;
}
} /* max-width: 1024px */
Would I need to add something like the above for #profile-icon and #profile-labels?

the structure of the media query is correct.
Once you get the custom css for the masthead working how you like it, resize your browser and watch what happens at the responsive trigger points. The masthead will rearrange itself (among other things). When this happens you can decide if it's something that works for you or if you need to create custom css to move things around. You may want your icon below the site heading for instance.
