Display Captions

    It seems that the lightbox when active will only display alt text, not captions or descriptions. I’ve switched Alt text off. Is there any filter or method to display captions in place of the alt text?

    Hi @rvnd –

    The lightboxes are set up to show the image title, with an extra option to ‘use alt as title’, in which case the alt text will show in place of title. But there is not an option to show the caption. I actually agree the free plugin *should* do this, so I’ll look at adding it.

    FYI – the Pro Lightbox version does have an option to show captions (along with title/alt as needed).

    If/when we do add this for free lightboxes, I’ll update you here.

    @ppnsteve – thanks for adding another vote in favor of this for the free lightboxes. I’ll move it up the priority list.
