MG 2.2 Description Required

[chrisf]

Is there an easy way to require a description on media that is uploaded so the gallery does not default to changing it to the random file name of the uploaded picture? Thanks!

bumping this back up as its becoming a bigger problem as MG1.x seemed to have required this and I don't see a way of doing this in MG2.2. Thanks!!

Sorry I meant title required but it would be great to require a description as well. Thanks!

Edit the xfmg_media_add_macros template.

Change this:

<xf:textboxrow name="{$namePrefix}[title]" value="{{ mustache('title') }}"

To this:

<xf:textboxrow name="{$namePrefix}[title]" value=""

To require a description edit the next block of code down and add required="required" like so:

Brogan, thank you again. I was looking there and missed that part Any way to make the description required? Do not see in the template where it even checks to see that the title is required. I appreciate all of your help the last few weeks. Thanks!

I edited my post to add the required description.

I tried that exact required but must have typo'd it or something as it did not work. Its working perfectly with your code. Thank you!
