not a support questionHi Kriesi,
Is there any way for the No Slideshow option / Display images below each other, to have the image's caption below each image?
At the moment if I choose to have no slideshow, e.g. in the portfolio item, it would just display images one after another and missing the caption for each image.
Will there be a fix for a video caption as well?
Thanks!

Hi manatama,
For the video caption question, no there will most likely not ever be an option for captions on video simply because of the possibility of causing conflicts with various video services and it displaying properly.
If you are choosing the no slideshow option, what its doing is just stripping out all of the slideshow code and displaying the images in a somewhat raw format. It would need to be added in as a new feature to make the captions show up along with that kind of output.
Regards,
Devin

Hi,
You could try something like this with css . Please add it to /css/custom.css or to quick css.
#top.single-portfolio .featured:after {
content: attr(data-caption);
}The thing is, if it has html in there, I don't think it will execute and instead be just spit out as tags.
Thanks,
Nick
Hi Nick,
It kinda works and kinda doesn't.
It does spit out html tags <div></div>
You can see the example here:

Hi,
Well if you aren't using the captions anywhere else you can just remove the tags. Please open up /inclues/helper-slideshow.php and find line 220 that looks like the code below
if(!empty($slide['slideshow_caption'])) $data .= '<div class="featured_caption">'.do_shortcode(nl2br($slide['slideshow_caption'])).'</div>';and replace the above line with the two lines below
if(!empty($slide['slideshow_caption'])) $data .= $slide['slideshow_caption'];
//if(!empty($slide['slideshow_caption'])) $data .= '<div class="featured_caption">'.do_shortcode(nl2br($slide['slideshow_caption'])).'</div>';----
If you plan on using the captions elsewhere in the regular format, what I would do is prefix only the captions that you want to show without the html tags with something like %$% and then do a if/else check on line 220 for the presence of %$% inside the string to determine whether to remove the html tags (and %$% from the string). Its a bit hacky but will work.
Thanks,
Nick
