    Hi Kriesi,

    Is it possible to show the image caption overlay only beneath the image in the lightbox? Because I don’t see the caption in the lightbox at all.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey Mark_goessens!

    When you select the image to use in the media library there will be some options on the right hand side. You can set the caption that gets displayed in the lightbox with the “Title” option.

    Regards,

    Hi Elliott,

    Thanks for you quick reply.

    I filled all the fields (description, alt text, caption) in the media library. I also filled in the caption overlay at the image lightbox. But none of them are showing up in te lightbox. Only the filename is visible.

    For your reference, you can see the page here. For example you can click on the ‘corporate brochure’ on the bottom left.

    Hi!

    It seems to be working. The title that you have set, “aarsen-brochure”, is displaying in the popup for me. If your not seeing it then try clearing your browser cache and any caching related plugins you might have installed.

    Best regards,

    Hi Elliott,

    Thanks. Yes I see the title too. I thought that was the filename. But you’re right, it’s the title.
    Actually I wanted to place a complete description in the lightbox. So I prefer to fill in the description field and show it in the lightbox.
    But I see that the title can contain a lot of words to, but I’m not shure if it’s good for the Google SEO?

    Hey!

    Please read this whole article or move to the Alt text and title text section. I’m sure it will answer your question: https://yoast.com/image-seo/
