Article text in Albums

[BobT]

Hi there - thanks for the great extension!!

I have created an article with text followed by a gallery that contains albums. When I select an album, the album article inherits the text of the gallery page - which I don't really want. Is there any way to change this behaviour?

AG using the same article for showing album content. Albums just change folder with images path on current position marked with trigger code.

I don't see an easy way to achieve this...

I got around it by changing the AG parameters in the article to not show albums. Then created new articles for each album and used sub-menu items below the gallery menu item to reference them..

If you are looking for suggestions, from a feature point-of-view what would be nice would be for your gallery template to allow a content area that is associated with a folder. Content could appear before or after gallery images (parameter driven - or possible multiple content areas such as topcontent, bottomcontent). This could be configured in image manager.

Then we wouldn't need to create articles for the galleries.

*disclaimer - I'm fairly new to Joomla - so please excuse any poor joomla grammar

Can You post this in Brainstorming Subforum? If there is more requests for this feature, we could discus how to make it and we could implemented it in the future.
