Imported Facebook images missing their captions/descriptions

Post by Computer Candy »

Hello, I just set up Phoca for one of my new sites and when i import photos from Facebook, they are all missing their captions. I can go into the Phoca settings in Joomla and turn "descriptions" on but this only shows the album name and photo name. It is missing the caption that was typed into Facebook to describe or explain the photo.

Am i missing something here? Any assistance would be great. Thank you. :)

P.S. I did some searching here but all i could find was info on category or album descriptions. I need the descriptions for each photo to be shown. Thank you.

Hi, confirmed - the field name where you can write description in FB albums is changing permanently - now it is called "name" ... Will be changed in version 4.0.3
