Getting image (title) names to display?

admint · 2016-09-20 01:37:51

Perhaps I’m missing some obvious setting or something but I can’t seem to get my image names to display in photoswipe (large image area). What am I missing?

Also can I edit the names there (wherever there is)?

Thanks.

Look in your album template Image Settings > Image Metadata
Use metadata tokens in the appropriate fields
http://backlight.theturninggate.net/doc … ata_tokens

After adding the metadata tokens and saving the template, you'll need to republish all images. In Publisher set up, you can check the "Push metadata without updating existing photos" check box to speed up the process.

The way you edit what appears is to edit the image metadata in the Library module and republish the images.

Thank you.

And not to be dense, but I'm a little confused on the tokens stuff. Can you give an quick example?

Thanks again.

put the tokens in curly braces. {Caption} will render the caption you entered in Lightroom. You can use plain text too, like

{Filename} / {Title} will give you the image filename followed by a slash followed by the image title. Or see the example right at the top of the metadata documentation I linked to above.

Thanks. Got it

OK, I thought I had it. Still must be missing something because I can get info to show on thumbnails with moussing over them here: http://www.exposedvisions.com/galleries/pc-builds/

but they still are not showing on large page screen i.e. here... http://www.exposedvisions.com/galleries … id=1&pid=1

Again... what am I missing??? Do I need a custom file or something?

did you place metadata tokens in the Photos Caption and Photos Title fields of Image Metadata for the album template being used for that album?
Double check it's the right template.
the page inspector show that the caption is empty

admint · 2016-09-20 08:07:57

Do I have to have BOTH caption and title? Will give that a try and see what happens. Thanks

And yes, I am editing the correct template.

Edit: FINALLY!!! Yes, adding the caption in the meta data in LR fixed it.

Now I just need to know how to center the text and edit the font.

Thanks.

centering text and editing the font need to be done with custom css
