Lightbox Now Automatically Showing Keywords, Captions, and it Reformatted

I made no changes to my site and all of a sudden the caption is no longer hidden in the lightbox (I don't want it showing all the time - I liked the arrow hover for more info) and the keywords just started appearing. I've been able to hide the keywords simply with:

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

but I cannot get the captions to be hidden again until the user hovers over the old arrow.


Any ideas?

Thanks!

    I agree, Smug really messed up the lightbox removing the "hover" caption to show.

    If this was back I wouldn't mind the KW's being there also but don't see any reason why.

    This really should be an option. I was very happy to see the keywords in lightbox - but that is because I have most of my galleries set to collage landscape. Using that style the keywords don't show anywhere else, and I want them visible. I know others don't want to see the keywords though (although I have never understood that...).

    For me I'd rather not have the keywords visible as I think they can be visually distracting. I only use them so users can search via keywords using that feature. I also use them to make finding stuff in my archives a lot easier. I just did a google image search for an odd keyword I used on a few images, and they appeared in the search. So it appears hiding them had no effect on them being indexed by google.

    As an indication as to how poorly thought-through this change was, they left the arrow indicating the presence of title and caption information when the title, caption and (now) keywords automatically appear, but don't show it when this detail is withdrawn. What's it doing there now! ne_nau.gif
