[SOLVED] Default Photo Gallery

Hello, there is a photo gallery on my users profile that is not a field for me to manage. I need to add some instructions so they fill in the title and description for each photo they upload. This must be the system added gallery?

So 2 questions:

1. Can I somehow set the Title and Description fields to be required so they must do it? It says in the tooltip "optionally supply a title...." which I would like to be required instead.

2. If not how could I add some text to the upload page where they upload the photos? A language string edit is fine if that is easiest.

Thank you

That's the Gallery tab provided by CB Gallery. It does not allow fields to be added to it.

No, CB Gallery does not require a title or description to function. Only way to change this is to modify the core code.

2. If not how could I add some text to the upload page where they upload the photos? A language string edit is fine if that is easiest.

You can use gallery_onBeforeItemsNew with a Code action to output some HTML or whatever you like above the upload input. Example as follows.

Global
Triggers: gallery_onBeforeItemsNew
Type: Code
User: User
Access: Everybody
Action
Method: HTML
Code: Output
Display: return

That works, thank you!

Hello, is there any way to have more than one of these and assign them to specific galleries? I have a couple different galleries that need different descriptions.

Thank you

The variables for that trigger are as follows.


You can probably use the below format function to call the asset function to get the primary asset for the gallery.


You'd then condition that for example and have an auto action per asset. So if you wanted it to only display on profile galleries the below condition should work.
