Add photo titles to main photo gallery page
H

When visiting a photo gallery page, the underlying captions are not visible until you click on the picture. Allow for short photo title and perhaps the person who submitted the photo, to be shown from the main photo gallery page. Another feature would be to allow members to upload a group of photos to a category or custom group name (i.e. "Photos from the 2018 holiday party")

Expanding the formatting functionality within the Photo Gallery would make it more attractive to visitors. Having the ability to group photos, for example by event or subject, and apply commentary, would be appreciated. Access controls would be useful too. Some content we want to restrict to members only.

Web Master: You can currently accomplish the above by creating various "Photo Gallery" pages for different types of albums (e.g., events, gatherings, etc). Then, you can organize those pages under a folder called something like "Photos." Below is an example of how this would look in the page menu.
By adding these as different pages, you can restrict the access to them as necessary by adding page restrictions: https://help.hoa-express.com/en/articles/2423786-how-to-add-page-restrictions.
For the reasons why we don't have plans to add folders in pages, please review the following post: https://feedback.hoa-express.com/feature-requests/p/add-a-folder-on-a-page.

My HOA president would also love to see captions with the pictures! In the interest of flexibility though, the feature could be "optional" as in turned on/off as desired on the photo gallery setting somehow.

Would like to see the file name of each photo on the group page and option to sort group page by file name (or caption).

Wes Cossick: I understand completely about the folders. That's not what I was after but I do appreciate it would take some effort to be able to add sections (categories) on a page to organize the layout.
The main thing I would like to see is a title under each of the pictures on the photo page and possibly the name of the member who submitted it. Otherwise it is just a collage of pictures.

Members are uploading some wonderful pictures. Many requests to know "Who uploaded that photo?"
Can we have a title plus the name of the person who uploaded the photo appear under the photo thumbnails?
