# Caption Shortcode Processing Func

 * I’m using the plugin Custom Field Template. When I insert an image with the caption
   set, the image outputs the caption shortcode instead of the translated html. 
   Is there a function that I can run the output through to process the image “caption”?
 * Currently appears like this:
 * [caption id="" align="alignleft" width="254" caption="Business meeting in Provence(
   Jacques, me, and Pere Grognon)."]
    {THE IMAGE IS CORRECTLY DISPLAYED HERE} [/
   caption]

 * Are you aware that you don’t need a plugin to simply display captioned images?
   This functionality is available within WordPress itself.

 * Yes. However, I am using this Plugin to handle some other functionalities that
   does not come in core WordPress. However, this plugin does not seem to be handling
   the caption properly and I’m trying to fix it. I tried posting this error in 
   the Plugin category of the forum but no one seems to know or respond so I’m trying
   here in the troubleshooting section. I’ve also emailed the plugin author but 
   received no response.
 * Would you know if there is a function that this output can be run through to 
   produce the correct caption html code as in the core WordPress system?
 * Thanks!

 * The plugin might be missing the [add_shortcode](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_shortcode)
   or [do_shortcode](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_shortcode)
   steps.
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API](http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API)
   would be a good place to start if you want to hack the plugin.
