    Hello,
    I’m wondering if there’s a way to have captions appear on lightbox images for one portfolio item, but not on other portfolio items. Is there a way to specify which ones I want to have captions for? It’s only a few right now.

    Hey joschro,

    If you are familiar with javascript or jquery this may be possible with an if statement. Essentially you would want a function that states if the image is not of a certain id or class then hide the caption.

    Thank you for your response. Where would that certain id or class go in the dashboard? Ultimately that’s where I would be editing captions.

    I see there is a space for a caption in the Edit Gallery page. I would like to be able to put a caption there, and have it show up as a caption in the lightbox. This would seem like an easy way to get captions onto the images that I want to have captions, and for the images I don’t want captions, I would just leave the caption area blank. How can that happen?

    If the only way to get captions is with the Title field in Attachment Details, can I delete the titles of images where I don’t want their title to show up as captions? I’m wondering if I delete this, will it negatively affect the image?

    Hi,

    You can keep the image title attribute blank and it won’t negatively effect the image.
