Issue Summary

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.

#4

Should this issue be posted in the CCK Filefield queue?

#5

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