    Hello,

    I added a gallery object to a page. When you click on the gallery there is a popup of the image with a caption under it. I want to put the caption to the right of the image and also add other fields, such as the description and title to the popup. I’ve added a picture of what I mean https://ibb.co/D9BMQgY.

    Hi Javier-

    Without writing some custom JavaScript to move the image caption around, I’m not familiar with any way to accomplish this.

    I checked out the most popular image gallery plugins available and I couldn’t find any others that display the caption to the right of an image either. It seems like the prevailing design pattern is to either show them on top of the image or below them.

    Would it be simpler to add information to the bottom without changing the location? That way when it pops up the image would have the caption, title, and description fields. Would you recommend finding another plugin to use as opposed to the gallery that come?

    Hi Javier-

    Probably the most popular option is NextGEN Gallery. I tried out the free version, though, and I wasn’t able to find a way to show the title and description.
    Their “Plus” offering does have one option called Pro Film Gallery (scroll all the way to the bottom of that link to see) that shows both the Title and Description, but not the Caption.

    NextGEN Pro is really the best-in-class option, as it includes a lot of features including the ability to do print fulfillment right out of the box to monetize your images.

    That said, I wasn’t able to test all of the image gallery options out there and there might be another free one that can accomplish your goals. If you do find one that works for you, be sure to let me know so I can recommend it in the future as well.
