Description

Hi,

Thanks for an awesome module, really works great....

I have an issue though with adding captions to the images after they are uploaded. I have title (imagefield) and description (imagefield) enabled to be able to edit after the images have been added.

Title has an option to be a textfield or a textarea but description seems to be forced to be a textfield only. This seems counterintuitive to me as the title should usually be shorter than the description. Am I missing a setting that will allow me to paste in longer descriptions. It seems to limit the character count for the descriptions and I cant find anywhere to disable this or change this setting.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Gregg

I am having the exact same issue and join forces with Gregg to find a solution! Any hint as to how this can be modified will be greatly appreciated and I concur with Gregg's praise of this extremely useful module.

And then there were two :)

Is there anybody out there out there out there?

Some time ago, the description field in CCK ImageField was also a single text field, so it became the same in FUpload. That's the reason why.

Should this issue be posted in the CCK Filefield queue?

No, it shouldn't because FUpload handles the textfield it-self.
