Caption bar in product detail page not showing

[latenightdrive]

Hello,

I am admittedly a complete n00b when it comes to php & js, so please bear with me here. I am unable to get the captions on the product detail page to show. What I need is to have them show on a bar either on top of the main lightbox image (along the bottom), or underneath that, above the thumbnails. And I need it to change based on which thumbnail is loaded in the lightbox. As an example, please see: http://dev.eroicaenterprises.com/dev1/product/alana/.

The only time the captions work as needed is when I insert the “echo ($image_caption);” code into the product-image.php file, but that makes them appear as plain text above the product description side. But they do change as I click on the different images, which is what I need. But as soon as I try to move it anywhere else, it stops working again. Is this something you could possibly help me with?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

This is already possible as standard, you add your caption to the media inputs:

Hello,

I have already added captions to the images for that product, but they still won’t show. Is there something I am missing?

Thank you

Hi,

Your parent theme is out of date, could you please update that: http://dev.eroicaenterprises.com/dev2/wp-admin/themes.php.

Please also disable your child theme, you are overriding a majority of the WooCommerce template files from the parent theme. – This will need removing or updating.

Thanks.

Hello,

My theme is up-to-date. I am running version Version: 3.4.62. And I have disabled the child theme, but the captions are still not showing.

Please add this to Theme Options => Custom CSS:

.woocommerce-product-gallery__image.flex-active-slide {
    position: relative;
}
