Q: 

Drupal: CCK ImageField, description not displaying

hi,

I've added the description field to my Image CCK Fields (in my nodes). I filled the description field from back-end. However I dunno how to enable it in my front-end.

I cannot display the descriptions. I checked, they are not hided by css. The HTML element doesn't exist.

thanks

This isn't something you can enable in the UI, unless you're using a view. You need to use a template file. More info: http://drupal.org/node/432846

so the only way to use them is to add some php code in the template ? I want to display them under the images in my nodes.

could you give me some more information please ?

Correct. You need to use a template to display that text.

ok thanks. So, I've followed the istructions on the link you sent me, and created a new template (with the same name of the field: "field_myImage"). Nothing changing yet... I've update the cache. What am I missing ?

For this to work, you need both the original content-field.tpl.php and your modified copy content-field-field_image.tpl in your theme folder. Did you do this?
