Request for help adding titles in category view

Post by DavidB2026 »

Hello,

I have recently moved from Joomla 3 to Joomla 5 and from Multithumb to Phoca Gallery. Joomla is 5.4.6. Phoca Gallery component 5.1.3. Phoca gallery plugin 5.0.0. Gallery button plugin 4.5.2.

My settings are for Category View are:
Display Name: Display

Display Detail Icon: Hide

Display Image Description In Box: Yes (HTML)
Description In Box: Yes (HTML)


In Styles, theme_standard is not enabled.

The page: https://www.angloboerwar.com/unit-infor ... tts-scouts

displays the images in the category but not their titles. Paging through the images works well.

I have tried different parameters in the article, eg {phocagallery view=category|categoryid=5|displayname=1} and without displayname but with no effect.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

With thanks
David

Thank you, Benno for your rapid response.

I thought I have looked at all possible options but did not realise there were some in the plugin.

My page is now displaying the title.

Can I ask if there a way to suppress the icon before the title so that, in my case, the title is Surname A etc please?

With grateful thanks again
David

Hi,
yes, it can be hidden via CSS:

Code: Select all

.ph-si-image {
display: none;
}
copy & paste the above code at the end of your Cassiopeia user.css

Kind regards,
Benno
