New to SIG but have installed the plug in and photos are showing in the relevant article. However when the thumbnail is enlarged (and it looks great!)the caption below reads JW_SIG_NAVTIP followed by the page name of the article when I want it to read the name of the folder - in this case 'Church refurbishment'. Where am I going wrong? It really looks good apart from this problem. I have looked through all the pages relating to SIG but haven't found annswer.

After wasting a whole day trying to fix the problem with images opening in a new window instead of a lightbox I would be very grateful if anyone could at least fix this problem as I do have the same issue with the image description

PLEASE!!!!

Kinda quiet here  ???

@ Riddlers, you probably have a conflict with another script of your site...
I suggest you to use SIG PRO which has more pop up engines to select in order to avoid such conflicts.

I have tried the pro version and all different engines, it works for a while but suddenly starts making problems again. I deleted cache, purged old cache, it works for a while, all of a sudden it makes my header rotation images pop up in new windows. I removed all SIG plugins and with other it works perfectly, however, they don't have the options I like about SIG.

I guess my search for the perfect gallery continues. BTW, it was a brand new joomla installation with a template from joomla-templates.com and it doesn't work properly  :(

Provide me a link to your gallery (using SIG PRO) please.

hi there,
are we supposed to understand from previous answers that SIG (no pro) users have to have "JW_SIG_NAVTIP" as a caption under enlarged images ??? That would be a pity since the plugin is just perfect except for that regretable caption display :'(
thx
raf.

Still not making any progress with this and would really appreciate some advice from the Forum

OK since no one wants to answer this question and instead only want to try to get people to buy the pro version, I decided to figure it out and sign up to post the answer.  Here's how to remove that text from the non-pro version.  (I don't know what the string would translate to since searching the files didn't show that string defined anywhere, but here's how to get it off of the description area.)

Open the file: [JOOMLA DIR]\plugins\content\jw_simpleImageGallery\tmpl\Polaroids\default.php

Search for: JW_SIG_NAVTIP

Remove:

Either remove

<?php echo JText::_('JW_SIG_NAVTIP');?>

to get rid of the JW_SIG_NAVTIP bit or remove

title="<?php echo JText::_('JW_SIG_NAVTIP');?> <b><?php echo $row->title; ?></b>

to get rid of the JW_SIG_NAVTIP bit as well as the title of the article.


How do you find out where a string is in a file without endless searching?  Grab a copy of Notepad++ (It's free) and hit ctrl+f and select "find in files".  Enter what you want to find and the base directory to start recursively searching in and you're good to go.  It will display every occurrence of that string.  Also, be sure to remove the white space (blank spaces) around the string (what you're searching for) in order to make sure it isn't searching for that string with the spaces around it.

If back and front end are in same language, you can add this:in default.php after:and create the language file in administrator/language e-g for french: fr-FR.plg_content_jw_simpleImageGallery.ini
If you are in english normally it's allready there.

tazhelico, *thank you so much*! This did the trick. The connection between the language file and the template was missing.  *SO* appreciate your posting this solution!

tazhelico, you saved my life with this one! THANKS A BUNCH! :)

I tried the pro version and all the different engines, he worked for a while, but suddenly starts to new problems. I deleted the cache, cache purged old, he worked for a while

Wow I'm glad I found this post. I have this problem but couldn't figure it out myself.
Thanks for the great post.
