Ambox notice.png The latest version of this mod uses the guidelines for TNG v12+ cust_text.php files. If you are using TNGv12+, and any cust_text.php file in this mod is marked with a Bad Target error, you need to update your cust_text.php files before you can install this mod. [Show instructions]

If you upgraded to TNGv12+, and did not update your cust_text.php files as instructed in the upgrade readme script, then you must use the TNG Mod Manager to update them. To do so:

  1. Go to Mod Manager, and select its "Recommended Updates" tab.
    (If the "Recommended Updates" tab is not visible, then go to the Mod Manager Options tab, select "Display Settings", and turn on the "Recommended Updates" tab.)
  2. Click the "Update" button in the "Recommended Updates" tab.
    Installed mods do not interfere with the update, and if you already have (or think you may have) run this update, it will not hurt for you to run it again.

Introduction

This mod was designed to move the display the Media Description (title) and Notes (Media Information Description field) to the table below the image.

This mod applies to TNG 7.0 and above. The mod will work with TNG version 6, but the line numbers will be different.

V8.1.1 of the mod was updated to honor line feeds in the Media Notes row.


TNG version: 9.0

V9.0.0.0 of the mod adds an IPTC Encoding row to show the character set encoding of the IPTC tags within the image. The Media Title row was dropped since TNG V9 moves the image title below the image.


TNG version: 10.0

V10.0.0.0 of the mod also moves the Body Text that can now be displayed with any media to the Show Table section, always sets the Media Title (description field) above the image and re-adds the Media Title to the table display.

Developer

Ken Roy developed this mod.

Automated Install

  1. Download the appropriate distribution for your TNG version from the download links in the status area in the upper right.
  2. Extract the media-2_show_table.zip to your admin/mod_folder (V7) or mods (v8 and above).
  3. Follow the normal automated installation for Mod Manager, as shown in the example Mod Manager - Installing Config Files to install the media-2_show_table.cfg.


TNG version: 7.1.3
TNG version: 7.0

Note that the media-2_show_table_v1.0.cfg file is part of a series of media display mods where the n in media-n designates the install order of the mods. In TNG V7, if you use Bret Rumsey's Image Viewer it must be installed before this mod.

Custom Text Additions

Note that config file only includes the English language changes, so if you support multiple languages you will need to modify the config file to add the custom text for those other languages.

The following custom text will be added to your English/cust_text.php file by this mod. If you are using other languages, you must add these lines to each of your language cust_text.php files with appropriate translations of course.

TNG V7 and V8

TNG version: 8.1.3
TNG version: 7.0
//Show Table - Ken Roy's mod
$text['mediatitle'] = "Media Title";
$text['medianotes'] = "Media Notes";

For example, you would add to the French/cust_text.php

//Show Table - Ken Roy's mod
$text['mediatitle'] = "Titre de médias";
$text['medianotes'] = "Notes de médias";

TNG V9

TNG version: 9.0
//Show Table - Ken Roy's mod
$text['medianotes'] = "Media Notes";
$text['iptclang'] = "Encoding";

For example, you would add to the French/cust_text.php

//Show Table - Ken Roy's mod
$text['medianotes'] = "Notes de médias";
$text['iptclang'] = "Codage";

Or you can use the language mods in the summary in the upper right corner of this page to add Dutch, French or Spanish custom text additions. Procedure: download, unzip to TNG mods folder, install using Mod Manager. Note that these language mods work for TNG v9 (or higher) only!

TNG V10

TNG version: 10.0
// added for ShowTable Mod - Ken Roy's mod
$text['mediatitle'] = "Media Title";
$text['medianotes'] = "Media Notes";
$text['iptclang'] = "Encoding";
$text['mediabodytext'] = "Body Text";

For example, you would add to the French/cust_text.php

// added for ShowTable Mod - Ken Roy's mod
$text['mediatitle'] = "Titre médias";
$text['medianotes'] = "Notes de médias";
$text['iptclang'] = "Codage";
$text['mediabodytext'] = "Texte Principal";

If you want to add another language please send me the translation (either the texts or as a full language mod) and your name (so I can give you credit) by sending me a personal message using the Contact Developer link in the TNG Mod Summary in the upper right hand corner.
