Can you add captions to images in Carousel? If so, How?
Thanks so much for this very useful table on a great series of plugins.
Thanks for posting this! I checked on one of the sites that I am using Carousel, and while the image editor says that the “Caption” can be displayed when enabled, it does not show up for me. According to PluginBuddy Carousel does not have the caption feature. When I asked the developers about this they said that they will be marking the “Captions” option in the image editor as a visual bug that Carousel should not show [or at least warn against] when being encountered. I suggested also that perhaps in a future version that the Captions be an option.
