I’m very enthusiastic about the new Masonry option, but also a bit disappointed by certain limitations. For example:

• The Masonry Gallery doesn’t seem to allow me to use thumbnails for the grid overview. In my case, where they click to view high quality jpgs, this means they load in a bunch of way too big pictures in the overview. The Media Gallery does have this option, making me wonder why this wasn’t implemented here.
• It would have been nice to set our own link to the items, for example link an item to a page, image, file (like PDF) or manual link.
• A “Load more” button instead of automatic loading when the visitor scrolls down.

Hey!

Ok I debugged the issue and it seems to be a problem/bug with the WPML plugin. Kriesi uses following code in /wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/postslider.php

$commentCount = get_comments_number($the_id);

to query the comments number. This function seems to work when WPML is deactivated but it breaks when WPML is activated (at least it doesn’t seem to accept the id parameter). However the other functions (i.e. get_permalink() or get_the_post_thumbnail()) work just fine and I think the WPML plugin doesn’t return the right comment count when the get_comments_number() is used within a loop. Please contact the WPML plugin authors and ask them to look into it (you can also link to this post) because I think this is something which needs to be fixed in the WPML core plugin code.

Best regards,
Peter

ok Devin I tried adding the default wordpress media gallery into a text field which allows you to still use the advanced editor, and also just using the default view and placing that way. In both cases you are right the default galleries automatically include the image title into the bottom of the lightbox. Exactly what I want.

But there is a glaring problem with this. Of course they get no styling like the enfold galleries. I want the sexyness of the enfold gallery but the funtionality of the default gallery. For you folks with skills this shouldn’t be too hard to implement into a child theme.

As of right now you already are… sort of. When you view a featured image for a blog post in the light box it appends the title name above the image in the lightbox. It doesn’t place it at the bottom IN the normal location but either way it is satisfactory. So you are already tapping into this with enfold.

So please try to help if you can on how to implement adding the image title name in to the lightbox when you view the thumbnails in a gallery built with the enfold layout builder. But on a child theme setup.

Thank you. This is super important for me to get this implemented as soon as possible. I need clients to be able to view and reference that unique name when looking at their images.

Hello!

The child theme code (functions.php) will be loaded before the parent theme code. I suggest to use the after_setup_theme hook to overwrite the woocommerce functions in config.php. I.e. let’s assume you want to overwrite the avia_woocommerce_thumbnail() function in config.php. In this case you can use following code to deregister the default function and to replace it with your function

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'enfold_woocommerce_child_theme_code' );
function enfold_woocommerce_child_theme_code()
{
	remove_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item_title', 'avia_woocommerce_thumbnail', 10);
	add_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop_item_title', 'avia_woocommerce_thumbnail_child_theme', 10);

	function avia_woocommerce_thumbnail_child_theme($asdf)
	{
		echo "Yippi, I'm the child theme...";
	}
}

Basically you just need to copy paste the original function from the child theme, then rename it and modify the function code. Then remove the default action and add your custom function with add_action.

Peter
