PP521: How to hide image title and author on index page

Hi,

1. I would like to hide on the index page the title of an image and the username below it.

2. If I am in a category, I can sort "thumbnail" only. But I can not make it mandatory as a first display choice i the categories - or is this possible?

How to do both?

Thanks in advance

But teh questions are still not answered. Could somebody please give a solution for this?

Thanks in advance

You could modify your feature.tmpl and remove the $ptitle and $puser variables to achieve something like that.

As far as number 2 it is standard in the software in 5.3. In Admin => Edit categories within the cat editor is this option just set accordingly

Would this affect only teh small thumbnails on the main index page and the index pages of each category, or would this affect all medium and large images too?

[Chuck S]

That would be for the feature thumbnail blocks only

How to get this on the index page in most recent photos and random images?

[Chuck S]

Thats what I said this edit I stated is for the featured blocks. If you want to remove the username and title from those blocks on admin page edit feature template and move the variables noted.

mmmhh,

I did that before I posted above, but it did not work, so I assumed it would be only for other pages.

If I remove $ptitle from feature.tmpl, I can see still tha image name on index page in recent photos and random photos

I changed this line:

<span class="{$Style['small']}">{$ptitle[$x]}<br />{$puser[$x]}</span>

to this line:

<span class="{$Style['small']}">{$puser[$x]}</span>

How about your cache? You probally need to refresh that as if you truly removed the variable it would not display

Hi

I deleted my cache, closed the browser and opened it again, then went to the gallery. The image name is still there. I also set the cache in admin menu to zero.

Well make sure your editing the correct file then

If your using a non vb3 integrated photopost edit the feature template in the main templates folder and if this is vb3 edit the file in the tempates/vb3enhanced folder

[snoopy5]

Bingo,

i slipped accidentally into the featurepal.tmpl, which has the exact same code

Now it works...

Thanks
