Short and long description of album

pln

Hi
I'd like to have short and long description of the album.
On my index page I've got my album list with thumbnail, title, and description. When I go on album page I'd like to have again thumbnails, title of the album, this same description, and some extra words about this album (longer description) how I can do that?
Cheers
Kamil

There are a few ways you could do that. They all involve customizing a theme.

You could, for example, have the following fields for an album:
– Title
– Description – what you want to appear on the album page
– Custom Data – the longer description that would appear only on the albums page
You could also use Codeblocks for that.

Alternatively, if you have already configured and used all the available blocs, you could configure your theme so that the index page and album page use the same "Description" field.
The 1st part of the Description would be what you want to appear everywhere. Follow it by 2 carriage ceturns (for example), then the more detailed description.

– In the general Index page, print the first part up to the 2 carriage returns.
- In the Albums page, print the entire description.
