how to display the title and description of an image

dl33 · 2006-12-26 23:38:22

Hi all,
I want to display images on my site with the title in a h3 tag and the description in a p tag. (I am attaching product shots…) Previously I used 3 custom fields for one image. However, I saw that when I upload an image I can also set the title and description. Is there any way to access them and display them outside of an img tag? This way I could save a couple of custom fields and display more pictures.

Thanks already, dl33

upm_image is a plugin which contains a lot of custom tags to display various details of images. Have a look at <txp:upm_img_caption />, for instance.

Thanks, this does exactly what I want it to do… My only problem now is how to display the custom field as an attribute of the txp:upm_image tag?
Using <txp:upm_image id=”<txp:custom_field name=“FieldName” />”/> would really mess up textpattern, wouldn’t it?

asy_wondertag allows for tags as attributes to other tags.

Is there a reason you want to use a custom field rather than an article image?
