Hi,

after WP 7 Update of my WP Ocean Theme I have the issue that all captions of my images in any blog post were changed from centered to left aligned.

Examplary post: https://reiseabenteuerlich.de/istrien-tag-12-entspannung-auf-krk-und-fahrt-nach-pula/

Also when opening the editor, the font seems to have changed from helvetica to another one, looking much smaller and like a systems font. And strangely, here the captions of there images are still centered.

Thank you for any help

Hello @reiseabenteuerlich,

Thank you for reaching out.

I fully tested the previous and latest WordPress and OceanWP updates but was unable to replicate the issue. By default, if an image block has no specific alignment set in the editor, aligns of the caption set to the left side.

Also, looking at the link you provided, I noticed that no alignment has been set for the image blocks, which means they are currently using the default layout: https://postimg.cc/XrVr1VpD.

You can use the CSS below in Customizer > Custom CSS/JS to center the default image captions:
```
figure:not(.alignleft, .alignright) .wp-element-caption {
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
  max-width: fit-content;
}
```
Regarding the font change in the editor, it is likely a caching conflict.
Please try these steps:
I. Clear your website/server cache and CDN.
II. If you use Elementor, go to Elementor > Tools and click Regenerate Files & Data.
III. Perform a hard refresh: (Win: Ctrl+Shift+R / Mac: Shift+Cmd+R).

Hope it helps,
Best Regards

Thanks a lot for you swift reply Shahin! 🙂

…but I think before, because I always used default mode, image caption were always center aligned.

Anyhow I will try what you suggest!

Hi again,

I tested again and and still in editor mode all captions are centered by default as before the update. But the published post renders them as left-aligned. Below a screenshot from the editor.
