Options for Image Effect
You can select an effect from Image Effect CK that will apply on the images of the blog. You can then also setup the title and description that will be shown inside the effect on the image.
You can select if you want to show or not the title and the text separately. By default the informations will be used like this :
- title : the article title
- text : the article intro text
There is a possibility to setup a custom title and text on the effect, that is different from the article. This way you can have a custom text in the effect on the image, and the title and text of the article under the image.
To setup a custom title and text you must fill the Intro image caption field in the article
You can separate the title and text by a double point "::". You can also just write a title, by omitting the "::".
