 * Captions have me really confused.
    What I want is to display the uploaded file
   name without ‘-‘ being added between the words as the caption and without the
   border around each image. What I have is displaying the “description” as a caption
   with a border around each image. I accomplished this by enabling the “gallery-
   captions” legacy template. Short of getting what I want, if I could just get 
   rid of the borders.
 * Suggestions? BTW I’m a newbie so detailed instructions are helpful.
 * Thanks so much for your help.

 * Hi [@flyntm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flyntm/)
 * Indeed, with our Basic thumbnail display, you will need to use the legacy template“
   gallery-captions”. I’m unable to see the borders here: [https://www.morelandarts.com/flynts-drawings-gallery/](https://www.morelandarts.com/flynts-drawings-gallery/)
 * Did you already fix the styling?
    Please, keep us posted.

 * Hi Gaby,
 * I did not solve my issue with the borders. What you were seeing was a different
   gallery plugin. I like NextGen better so I would like to get rid of the borders.
   Here is a page running the NextGen plugin so you can see what I’m talking about.

 * Hi [@flyntm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flyntm/),
 * Please add the custom CSS rule from below to “Gallery -> Other Options -> Styles”
   to hide the borders:
 * .ngg-gallery-thumbnail {
    border: none !important; }
