Lightbox: Using WP Image Description as Lightbox Caption?

[rocked23]

Hey guys,

I’m wondering if it’s possible to use the Wordpress Image Description (which can be added to an image in the Wordpress Mediathek) to display this text instead of the Lightbox Caption (which needs be added in each Element Grid)?

It would be cool if you want to use one image in several/different Element Grids. Normally, you have to add the Lightbox Caption in each Element Grid. If you could you the Wordpress Image Description, you only had to enter the text once and it would be displayed as Lightbox Caption across all Element Grids, the image is in.

Thanks and greetings from Cologne

Dear Alex @rocked23

As of yet this is not easily available for the lightbox addon,
However it is a great idea and i will add this to the development notes for future discussion! :)

Thank you for you ideas and for wanting Lay Theme to be better for all user's

Best wishes

Sincerely

Dear @Richard-Keith,

thanks for your fast reply – glad, that you wrote it down for future discussion! Looking forward to it and in the meantime, I’m thinking about a workaround for that ;)

Dear Alex @rocked23

Thank you for understanding :)
I apologise that it isn't a readily available feature already, it would be great to have that control across the whole Theme, but sometimes this will cause clashes.

However, i do look forward to any work-around that you may achieve, it's a worthy endeavour! :)

Good Luck and best wishes

Sincerely
Richard
