After a while, I think the solution can be found here: https://anilmakhijani.com/2008/08/04/wordpress-26-and-captions/
Haven’t tested it, but looks like that page lists all the places where changes need to be done to do what I wanted.
Thanks everyone!

Thanks for your reply, and for clearing out the differences.
I’m really in a need to get brackets in my caption (using it to display some text where the difference between brackets and parentheses matters), and willing to help it work ??

I tried HTML escaping the brackets and made some tests.

If I insert the escaped brackets directly in HTML view in the editor, and then switch back to the Visual editor, the caption gets correctly displayed. If I then switch back to the HTML editor, the escaped brackets are replaced by their unescaped counterpart. If I make the switch back and forth one more time, the caption gets displayed wrong.

Is this the way it should work, or is this a bug?
Where should I look to try to make it work? (The problem seems to be in TinyMCE, isn’t it).

Thanks!

Thanks, that gave me some insight on how it works.
I’ve managed to display the description in the post by writing a new function and attaching it as a filter, but by doing it that way it won’t get displayed in the editor, as the caption does.

Is there a way to do so?

Thanks.
