 * I have a featured image attached to a post. That images doe not have a caption
   on it. I also have an image in the post at the very beginning which does have
   a caption. The plugin is not pulling the featured image – it’s pulling the first
   image in the post. How can I stop this behavior as I can’t use the MailChimp 
   RSS Feed because of this?
 * Oh, and it’s showing the caption in the RSS Feed itself as well as showing up
   in the MailChimp newsletter.

 * The plugin pulls in only the featured image, whether it has a caption or not.
   If it’s the same image, adding a caption to the image, is adding it to the featured
   image since it’s the same image in the media library.

 * The caption was added when the image was added to the content area. When you 
   go to that image in the Media Library – there isn’t a caption added to that image.
   The Featured Image is attached to Media Library version. So I am really confused
   how the plugin is pulling the caption from the body of the content – because 
   it’s not added to the caption in the library.

 * Yes but I think the image in the content area may have been edited, with caption
   added, which then affects the version in the media library, and then the featured
   image is the same and picks it up. It’s shared across all uses. Click on the 
   featured image again, and see if the caption is shown there now. If so, it’s 
   shared. Try uploading it again separately, see if it keeps two images, one with
   the caption and one without.

 * I’ve clicked on the Featured Image and there isn’t any caption information written
   in there anywhere. There isn’t any caption on any Featured Image. It’s only added
   when the image is added to the content area. I’ll probably just have to remove
   this and look for an alternative.

 * Hmm, can you email me a WP login, so I can take a look? I’m not sure why it’d
   pick up the caption and use it if it’s not set on that image, send it to rob 
   at presswizards.com
