Keywords not hidden anymore

Tic Tac · March 17, 2014

In lightbox view, the following code used to prevent displaying keywords:

/* REMOVE KEYWORDS */
.sm-tile-keywords {
display: none;
}

For some reason, this is not working anymore! Any ideas?

That is what it looks like...

Hi Tic Tac,

You will need to add the following to also control and remove the keywords in the Lightbox view:

/* Remove Lightbox Keywords */
.sm-lightbox-keywords {
display: none;
}

Thanks -Scott

Cool beans! I literally just noticed key words appeared on a light box image, and came here specifically to find out about it. Talk about being able to find the fix quickly!

When did they make a change causing them to appear? Any other changes?

Scott does this go into the CSS for the 'entire site'?

If so, it is not removing my keywords. Any ideas?

AperturePlus · March 17, 2014

Sorry - a correction - it has removed them from the lightbox, but not from underneath the right-hand side preview in the gallery. How would I remove all keywords?

Tic Tac · March 17, 2014

Yes !!! worked!!! Thank you!

crockny · March 17, 2014

keywords and "add title" showing in lightbox
The above code in CSS has not worked for me ... I added it for the site ... what now?

And why are they monkeying with what worked previously???? Annoying to say the least ...

Link to your site? Preferably in your signature with the 'http://' before the link.

Maybe I didn't understand what you were getting at, Hikin' Mike? Could you elucidate?

On D-Grin, there is a clipboard icon near the top-right. Click on that and find 'Edit Signature' on the left panel. Add your site there. This way it will be visible to everybody each time you post.

To answer your question about the footer issue. I use this, site-wide:

.sm-page-powered-by a {
    display: none;
    }

My question is about keywords and what shows up in the lightbox ... all of a sudden I have 3 lines - add title, filename, and keywords ... I just want the file name to show.

This will hide the keywords in the lightbox:

.sm-lightbox-keywords{display:none;}

Just to add, I only see the file name and keywords.

Will the CSS code in the second post above still allow the search function to locate photos?

I use this to hide my keywords:

    }

I searched for one of my (hidden) keywords, 'half dome', and it works: http://mike.imagesinthebackcountry.com/search/#q=half+dome&i=0

Thanks, Mike!

crockny · March 24, 2014

Thanks! That worked for me ...

If the keywords are hidden, do they still work for site indexing for search engines?

I did some checking. I hide my keywords (I use Thumbnail Style Galleries). Searching works because of this: http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=1946989&postcount=8

I opened up on of the lightbox pages and looked at the source code. Could find any keywords. I removed the hidden keyword CSS. Still can't find ANY keywords.

So Smugmug is hiding the keywords regardless of being hidden or not. Unless I'm missing something.

I'm not sure why you're not seeing keywords in lightbox unless there is some other code that you missed. I just checked one of my galleries to make sure that the keywords are still showing in lightbox; they are. If you want to verify there are keywords in this gallery - http://www.denisegoldberg.com/Coastal-glimpses/Crane-Beach-2014/.

I could be wrong, but I believe Mike meant he can't find the keywords in the actual source code, whether or not they're visibly hidden.

Yes. I can hide them with CSS....no big deal there. What I'm talking about is if I DON'T hide them, I can't see the keywords in the source code. If the keywords aren't there in the source code, Google isn't going to see it either. That's bad.

I just did a view source from this photo in lightbox - http://www.denisegoldberg.com/Coastal-glimpses/Crane-Beach-2014/i-Wxh9S35/A. The keywords are there:

<meta name="keywords" content="crane beach, massachusetts, beaches"/>

Looking at this page: http://mike.imagesinthebackcountry.com/Central-valley/i-8FZqKPW/A

That picture's keywords are:

landscape | nature | merced | california | nwr | national wildlife refuge | central valley

The metadata keywords say this:

<meta name="keywords" content="merced nwr, merced county,merced california,central valley california"/>

The metadata shows that gallery, not the individual photo. Google doesn't use metadata keywords anyway. BUT Google SHOULD display the words (keywords) as text, just like a <title>, description etc.

Ah, I missed that. The same is true on the page that I posted above - those are the gallery keywords.

On a similar topic, how do I hide the keywords in a gallery based on the Collage Portrait style..? I used the
.sm-gallery-smugmug .sm-tile-keywords {display: none;} code for my Smugmug style galleries which worked fine, but that doesn't work for the Collage Portrait gallery. I tried to replace smugmug with collage-portrait or collageportrait but that seems not to work.

Keywords in a collage-style gallery show in the lightbox, not in the gallery. Did you try the code from this post earlier in the thread?

Thanks so much Denise, tested that now it worked well!
