    The individual pictures allow a block of large text, the description, to be displayed.

    The album description is very small and 1 line textbox, and displays funny if large text is put in.

    I use the description as 'body text' for the page, as I am making plogger be a webpage. Integrating won't help me out with what i need to do, as it needs to be simple for someone else to use.

    So, how do i just make the descriptions for albums the same as photos?? Larger textarea, and display the same?????

    My question seems very complicated. What I did was I needed a body of text added, so I added includes such as follows:

    <?php
    $aptalbumname = plogger_get_album_name();

    $aptalbumtext = "/home/loc24/public_html/functions/album/text/" . $aptalbumname . ".txt";
    $aptalbumtext = strtolower($aptalbumtext);
    $aptalbumtext = str_replace (" ", "", $aptalbumtext);

    ?>

    <p><?php include("$aptalbumtext"); ?></p>


    Very basic, but I added this into the template file so I just need a separate text file to pull from. Works for me. A little more complicated approach, but simple in the fact that I do not need to edit the plog-admin.
