can't get image descriptions to show with a link

Post by daveturner101 »

i'm trying to get phoca gallery module to display on my site exactly as it does on the phoca demo site: https://www.phoca.cz/demo/ (bottom right corner of the page)

i need to display 1 random image from a category and then once clicked that image opens large in a lightbox with links to the other images in the gallery. i'd also like to add a link to each slide when displayed in the lightbox that will link through to a different page for each slide. i was hoping this could be the slide description.

the demo gallery seems to do all these things (and when i mouse over the image in when it's opened in the lightbox it appears like you can link the image somewhere? or is this just to close the lightbox?)

my current development site is here: http://fusiongda.develsite.co.uk/ and the gallery module im trying to get to work in located underneath the 'did you know' banner. bottom right.

when i open up the slides in chrome i get the slide i clicked on viewed larger (all good) and the links to the other slides in the category (all good) but i can't seem to find out how to show the image description with a link to another page for each slide? has anyone got any ideas? is there another lightbox that would be better to use? im using shadowbox in the settings at the moment.

thanks in advance

Hi, buttons, description etc in detail window needs to be enabled in component parameters.

All this can be don for iframe methods only, see:
