Hello,

I've been running an old Gallery2 install for quite a while. I found my web space filling up and found Gallery generating php errors about something being deprecated and filling up the error_log file. So...I'm not working on upgrading to Gallery3. I've managed to get my G2 install downloaded and testing on a local virtual Linux box. So far, I think I'm about ready to try to toss it back up to my web host on G3. But...one thing I would like to tweak first if possible. In Gallery2, the main gallery has links to albums, and I used the title and summary fields. I see that Gallery3 doesn't appear to have a summary field, and has moved my summary info into the description field, presumably during the import process. Is there any way to display that description field under the album thumbnail? I've been searching, but not having any luck finding a way to do this...

Thanks,

Wesley

How comfortable are you in creating a new theme? You could add the $item->description on the album.html.php of your custom theme.
