Caption not displaying in native WP gallery

  • Hello,

    I’m working on converting all my galleries back to the native WP core Gallery.

    But apparently, GP does not display captions of the WP core Gallery. Is that right ? Or do I miss something ?

    Here is an example where the first galleries are WP core galleries and each image has a caption but it does not display : https://monvoyageencolombie.com/birdwatching-en-colombie-ou-observer-les-oiseaux-en-colombie/

    Thanks

  • Hi Sam,

    This sounds strange.

    I just tested in a default install and the captions are displaying as expected:

    I can’t recall other mentions of this issue either.

    Can you try #1 here to debug first?

    Let me know 🙂

  • Hello,

    I understand what is happening. As I was using a plugin to display galleries, when I change the block back to WP core Gallery Block, it strangely does not display the caption. To make it work I need to re-select each image of the gallery one by one… Off course if I create a new core gallery from scratch it works.

    If you have any tips you could give me to avoid this behaviour it would be really appreciated even if it’s not GP related obviously.

    Thanks a lot

  • The gallery block is a core block, it’s not from GP, unfortunately, we are not familiar with its codes, so we do not have tips for that.
