How to add Image description underneath an image in Virtuemart

Support Team posted this 23 December 2016

Hi,

Unfortunately Themler theme does not output Product Image subtitle. I'll ask our developers on how to output it manually via CMS code. Please stand by.

Thank you,
Olivia

Hi,

Please try adding CMS Code control with the following code:

<?php echo $product->images[0]->file_description; ?>

This should help.
Please keep us posted about the progress.

Thank you,

Hi,
thank you for the quick response.
The code helps only for the first picture. But it won't work for the rest of the Productpictures.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.
Unfortunately the Product Thumbnails control does not support such functionality and it cannot be implemented in an easy way. If the image title is not too long you can try making it as a part of the image.

Hello,
thank you for your replay, but i solved the problem myself. Here's my way:

I inserted <?php echo $this-?>product->images[$j]->file_description; ?> in file /html/com_virtuemart/productdetails/default_template.php at line 132

This way show's the description underneath the images of the carousel.

Best regards,

Tom
