View Full Version : html showing in captions (larger pics)

Like many smugmug users, I use html in the caption space to point to price lists and other links.
I have turned the 'hover' feature off so this does not appear when you are viewing an image in a normal gallery, but when a user views the image at a larger size or in a slideshow the whole caption appears underneath, which is misleading and looks unprofessional.
I've asked the Smugmug boffins for help without success, so I'm hoping someone here has run into the same problem and has developed a fix.

As you can see here: Looks fine in the normal viewing mode

But not so flash at larger viewing sizes.

I have found this forum an almost bottomless source of customization goodness so, once again, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Stu.

This will get rid of the caption when you click on the image to bring it up in the light box:
#lightBoxCaption {
display: none !important;
}
Unfortunately I don't know how to remove it from the slideshow. It would be nice if there were a site setting to hide the captions on the flash slideshow, but I haven't seen one. It might be worth asking for that in the Feature Requests sub-forum (within Smugmug Support).

Thanks Denise - that works nicely. If there's any update on the slideshow issue i'll let you know.
