I don’t know. Please have a look at http://www.wpexplorer.com/post-series/installing-wordpress-locally/ how to install a local test environment on your computer.
Based on what I can gather from Revolution Slider, it seems you would have to use some of the Media Credit template tags and hooks provided by Revolution Slider to include media credit within the slider.
Thank you Pepe and Scott. I will check the suggestions you gave me.
Pepe,
I installed it on my actual blog and edited a particular photo to include the name for credit. Here is the link but I don’t see the credit yet. Am I missing something? http://brasileirinho.com/tutorial-eventos/

If that’s a featured image, you would have to include some template tags as well. (Similar to what we discussed here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/media-credit-x-theme). If it’s not featured image but inserted into the post_content: Did you include the shortcode? Just editing the image in the media library is not enough. You have to insert it in the editor after the plugin has been installed to include the correct shortcode.
It is a featured image. If I choose to include the image in the post_content, I have problems with sizes. Featured images always work better for me. But if I decide to change, do I have to include that code in every editor of each post or is it something I could insert on a template page? I’m not good at coding, as you can see 🙁
Another question: If my post has multiple images with different credit names, will a single shortcode take care of all credits?

You would include the PHP code (from the linked thread) in a template.
As for shortcodes: If you want to display the credits next to each image, you have to include the shortcode for every image (this gets done automatically if you insert it via the editor). If you just want a credit line for all images on a page, there is an option to set. I think if you enable it you would not actually need to have shortcodes in the post_content (I’m not quite sure, I never use that feature personally).
I understood the second part of your explanation. As for the “template”. Is that a .php page I would have to edit from my theme using the WP editor? If it is, what is the name of the page?

Yes, templates are the PHP files making up the theme (excluding functions.php
). The WordPress Codex has an extensive section on what file does what: http://codex.wordpress.org/Templates
Unfortunately, there is some leeway how themes are structured, so I can’t tell you more without having the source of the theme available. You should start with single.php
, though.
