Can't get rid of "data image id" showing on gallery

    I have a gallery set up, and I need to link each of those images (or a “click here” beneath the images) to individual pages of the site. I entered the link tag in the description field, and it actually works! The problem is that it also displays “data image id=xx” above the image. This is triggered when I use the html link in the description field.

    I need that “data image id” NOT to show, obviously. I can’t figure it out, though. How do I get rid of it? Please, I have beginner-level skills in PHP, so you will have to spell it out for me.

    I actually tried installing the custom fields plugin, thinking I could put the link in that custom field and not use the description field, but I can’t even get the custom fields plugin to work.

    I would prefer NOT to have to even use the custom fields plugin. IF I could just figure out how to get rid of that “data image id” text, everything would be fine.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    If anyone else has this problem, a simple fix was to change the quotes in my html link in the page description field to single, rather than double. Now that text links to the desired pages. An easy fix.

    Never did get the custom fields plugin working, even though I pasted the code and tried to follow directions the best I could.

    This gallery has done a lot for WordPress. I hope in future versions that more and more things will become . . . simpler for non-programmers to use. I’m sure that will happen. Thank you, developers, for this plugin.

    @ameliafranz – I’m glad you sorted out that issue with the links, we have improved how HTML in image descriptions is being parsed and those enhancements will be in our next (beta) release but in the meantime I was going to suggest basically what you already sorted out for yourself.

    Well Done!

    … and thanks for sharing your solution.
