   hi Elliot!

   Sorry for possibly dumb question - but I can't figure out how to set up TITLE and DESCRIPTION for the Portfolio images, so it works like on this demo page: http://themes.mysitemyway.com/themeforest/?theme=Awake

   I first tried using the shortcode code from "GET THE CODE" on the demo page, but that didn't seem to work.

   I get the images displaying, but no title or description.

   Thanks in advance!

   Hello hanazair,

   Your talking about the title and description as they appear in prettyPhoto correct? When you set the featured image you can set the title and alt text and those get displayed as the title and the description within prettyPhoto.

   So click on the "Featured Image" link when editing your portfolio post, http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php?title=Post_Options#Featured_Image, upload your image and set the title / alt text, and then click the "Use as Featured Image" link.

   Hi Elliot,

   Just wanted first to make sure we are talking about the same thing.

   I'm referring to a Portfolio using portfolio shortcode and portfolio items. I'm trying to get a portfolio like the one on screenshot "AWAKE PORTFOLIO" with each image having title and description.

   The URL of my portfolio page is: http://carlosdinizart.com/test-portfolio/

   The shortcode I'm using is: [portfolio_grid column="2" showposts="4" cat="carlos-diniz-art-gallery-2"]

   For the each individual Portfolio items I do have TITLE and ALT set up in the featured image. See screenshot "FEATURED IMG". However as you can see on my other screenshot "MY PORTFOLIO" I'm not getting TITLE or ALT TEXT shown on the individual images. I also do not have any of the info, such as date, visit site, read more showing. Additionally my Portfolio controls look different too. I marked all these on the screenshot.

   I'm using Awake 2.3. Can't think what I'm doing wrong.

   I did set up the Title and ALT text

   Hi hanazair,

   It looks like you're running Awake 2.3

   If you update to the latest version of Awake ( v2.8 ) I believe the portfolio Alt & Titles will appear in your prettyPhoto pop-up.
