Gallery Lightbox Caption

A question.. In WoodMart’s image gallery, why are the lightbox image caption based on the image titles and not the image captions?

It should be the captions no?

Thanks

Hello,

Please find this file: inc/integrations/elementor/elements/class-images-gallery.php

Find this line:

$title = trim( strip_tags( $attachment->post_title ) );

Replace it with this line:

$title = wp_get_attachment_caption( $image['id'] );

Best Regards

Hi Elise. Thanks for the reply.

This is great but of course I don’t want to be updating core files. I’ve had a look at that bit of code and I can’t see a way of using a filter.

I imagine changing this in a future update isn’t as simple as changing that code, as it would effect everyone relying on the attrachment title. Perhaps an option (in the widget) that allows the user to pick between the two?

I only suggest it because it really feels like the caption should be used for the caption 🙂

Thanks again

Hello,

We shall consider changing this feature, however, we do not promise to implement it in the nearest feature.

Best Regards
