    Hi guys,

    I’m an amateur in WordPress and I’m using Layers theme to build this site: http://www.festivalfebre.com.br/2018/ . WP version is 4.9.4 and Layers is 2.0.7

    I’ve been trying to show captions for the images, mainly using the Content and Slider widgets, but with no success. The titles, caption, alt and description of the images are filled. Featured images, background images and even images I inserted through code in the description fields of the widgets won’t show captions.

    Inspecting the code it seems that the <div> structure for the columns and the sliders are ok, but the caption isn’t rendered in the code.

    I tried the Featured Image Caption and Better Image Credits plugin but with no success. The Layers support told me the caption option to display the captions from the Media Library is disabled by default. They suggested this custom CSS workaround which also didn’t work:

    .gallery-caption {
    position: relative;
    opacity: 1;
    }

    The only way I was able to render captions was by manually inserting the [caption] shortcode, but that only works for images inserted in the description field using code, not for featured or background images. You can see that in the “Maglore, por Fabrício Vianna” caption in the link.

    I’m using some custom CSS but it doesn’t seem to be interfering.

    I plan to build this site in the /2018 subfolder and publish it in the root when it’s done.

    I’d really appreciate any ideas and suggestions.

    Thanks everyone.
