Dear Pixelpost Fans :)

I am currently editing my pixelpost blog, but 2 things aren't quite clear to me.
These are:

1. is it possible to echo the category name, in front of the image name you gave in the admin panel?
So it will look like this: "Currently viewing : Snapshots > Nice Car!" where Snapshots is the category name.

2. is it possible to change the font type of the "Select category" dropdown box? I've tried a few times, but it seems the variable '<BROWSE_CATEGORIES>' isn't editable that easy :)

Kind regards,
Michel

1) sure... Currrently viewing: <IMAGE_CATEGORY> &raquo; <IMAGE_TITLE>

2) font type generally can't be changed consistently between browsers (or perhaps not at all) for select input as a rule... it is a bad idea.

Thanks a lot Joey!

I tried, but I don't know exactly whether it is due to the fact I am using PP 1.4.3, but when using <IMAGE_CATEGORY>, I get the following line:

Category: [%CATEGORYNAME%] (where %CATEGORYNAME% is my category.
It this due to the fact I am still using 1.4.3, or is it editable somewhere that it is echoed without the [] ??

About the font, I'll leave it as is :)

in your options page you should be able to adjust the format of your categories... you can change brackets to slashes etc or jsut remove formatting all together.

Thanks a bunch :)
I must have overlooked that option..

Now everything is complete!
