No description showing up when viewing thumbnail. [#1711462]

I couldn't get the description to show up on the gallery thumbnails even though title & description was enabled.

I added the following line:
$meta_vars['description'] = drupal_render_children($element);
right above //Theme the metadata in the following function template_preprocess_media_gallery_media_item_thumbnail() in the file media_gallery.theme.inc

Once I added the line, I could go the file types display and enable and disable the fields I wanted to see on the Gallery Thumbnail tab. (admin/config/media/file-types/manage/image/display/media_gallery_thumbnail)

Hope this helps someone.

This line works better -- getting only the description.
$meta_vars['description'] = isset($element['media_description']) ? $element['media_description'][0]['#markup'] : '';
