    When I am adding a caption title to an image, it seems to be staying as an H2 whatever the size picked. Is there any way to change it to an H1 for SEO benefits .
    Thank you

    Hey lolo13,

    If it’s for SEO I would advice against you using h1 elements:

    Many of the carousels I looked at were built with jQuery, AJAX or HTML5. In most cases, the headings in the slider were wrapped in an h1 tag. Basic SEO best practices state that there should only be one h1 tag per page, and it should appear before any other heading tag. The problem with using h1 or any heading tag in the carousel is that every time the slide changes, the h1 tag changes. A page with five slides in the carousel will have 5 h1 tags, which greatly devalues the keyword relevance.
