    hello there!
    I'm loving this theme and as a non-developer it's been fantastic for what I wanted.

    I'm wanting to configure a simple gallery of images, using the lightbox to then show further detail.
    At the moment the captions appear

    • appear in a bigger font than I would like, and,

    • they appear below the image - when I would like to have the caption appear

    • can images in the lightbox auto display image title?

    Please could anyone help advise me on where/how to configure this?

    I'm not a developer but confident to add additional CSS where required.....

    thank you so much!

      appear in a bigger font than I would like, and,

      when you edit your lightbox caption for an image:

      just choose a different text format to have smaller text:

      or did you put the caption here?

      they appear below the image - when I would like to have the caption appear

      when you open an image in the lightbox, the lightbox caption will always appear below the image

      i think i dont understand the question

      can images in the lightbox auto display image title?

      Right now, the images will auto display not the image title but the image caption:

      i can code an option where the image title will be displayed

        @arminunruh Thanks for your reply and sorry for the late response.

        Attached is a screenshot that hopefully explains the positioning element in relation to the captions on the lightbox.

        I would like the caption text to appear to the right hand side of the image.

        alt text

        Title of image automatically appearing is not essential just nice to have!

        text format - understood thank you!

              ah i see!
              where exactly do you want it? at the top right?

              is there a special reason, like the caption is exceptionally long or sth like that?

                @arminunruh thanks! Yeah each image for this project has quite a long description (1/2 paragraphs as an example) I think it’s best that I would position from the top right moving down…is that something I’d be able to do? Thanks so much
