Are you still working on adding captions below the thumbnails?

All the description fields have been input into the Manage Gallery admin screen, if that’s what you mean. If your question is whether I am still working on getting the captions to display correctly on my gallery page, then yes, I am still trying.

You’ll need to add some php code to your gallery-mytemplate.php file.

Do you mean this (copied from Alex’s explanation in the previous thread):

<div id="ngg-image-<?php echo $image->pid ?>" class="ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box">
		<div class="ngg-gallery-thumbnail" >
			<a href="<?php echo $image->imageURL ?>" title="<?php echo $image->description ?>" <?php echo $image->thumbcode ?> >
				<img title="<?php echo $image->alttext ?>" alt="<?php echo $image->alttext ?>" src="<?php echo $image->thumbnailURL ?>" <?php echo $image->size ?> />
			</a>
		</div>
        <?php echo $image->description ?>
	</div>

If there’s more php that also needs to be added/edited, I have no clue what it is or how to do it. As I mentioned earlier, I’m pretty much php-illiterate.

Thanks, I took the leading .mytemplate out of the styles in my nggallery.css file (duh).

I now seem to have the files in the right directories, because now I’ve gotten the captions to display… but unfortunately, they’re not displaying the right way. The captions are showing up to the right of the thumbnails as unformatted text, like this. I’m fiddling around with the css to see if I can make them display right, but so far nothing I’ve tried has worked. Here’s the link to my gallery again.

Thanks again – I really appreciate the help.
