Title: Increase the length of image description displayed
Post by: Legacies on October 15, 2021, 12:09:17 pm

Is there a way to Increase the length of the image description that is displayed to the end user?

On long image descriptions, they seem to be getting cut off, so we would like to find out if, how, where we could increase the number of characters that are displayed.

Thank You

Is it possibly a configuration issue?  In the config, you set the maximum number of characters for a description (https://coppermine-gallery.net/docs/curr/en/configuration.htm#admin_image_comment_descr_length).

If it does not seem to be that situation and the entire description is attached to image, it is your theme that is causing the text to truncate.

Link to site?

Thank you for the response. Apparently while transferring the gallery from one server to another, someone didn't get the config for that feature set properly on the new install.

We got it changed and it works fine now.
Appreciate the quick and knowledgeable response.
