Hello. I exported a Drupal Gardens website and wanted to have media_gallery_description's that contain links and other html. Unfortunately the input filter selection is not displayed.

I went into the database and unlocked the media_gallery_description field. Through the manage field's UI I was then able to change it to filtered. I then went back and relocked it.

I guess I could have just made another field, but I really just wanted to use the description field.

Thanks

We do that for usability reasons mainly.

media_gallery has a lot of assumptions baked in to make it really simple for newbies to use. That being said, we tried hard to also built it on flexible components so people who know where they are doing can go much around in there.

So to sum:
We don't want to show the input filter selection by default since it's kinda a distraction.

BUT
You can probably do a form_alter of your own to show it.

Or am I missing the point completely?

Thanks,
Jacob

This should probably be closes as @JacobSingh provided an answer, but since @jsm174 did not respond I am setting it as postphoned.
