    Hello,
    Just found this plugin and really like it!

    How can I reference custom fields so that I can include them in the popup (I'm using thickbox) after clicking a thumbnail?

    For instance... including a description, price, etc below the image caption

    on line 1756 of bwb-photosmash.php, I modified the code to read:
    (my custom field is image_description)

    if($img){
    $imgtitle = str_replace("'","",$img['image_caption']);
    $imgdesc = str_replace("'","",$img['image_description']);
    $imgtext = $imgtitle.' - '.$imgdesc;
    $ret = "<img src='".PSIMAGESURL.$img['file_name']."'".$img['imgclass'] ."alt='".$imgtext."' />";
    }

    No success, though. Any ideas?

    Hi luv_tahoe,

    I think you can accomplish what you're trying with the standard plugin. So, I'd recommend that you start fresh with the unaltered plugin. What you want is a Custom Layout...you can build these in the Layouts Editor (first have to turn on Advanced menu options in PhotoSmash Settings / Advanced). In the layouts editor, take a look at the preloaded Std_Widget layout to get a sense of how to build a custom layout. Then, you can use your custom fields like:

    title='[image_description] - [image_price]'

    I think title in the href is how you get stuff to show up in the Thickbox popups.

    Hope that helps,
    Byron
