Fancybox and WordPress image caption

[TarmoS]

Thanks for this wonderful plugin. :)

I'm using WordPress 2.92 and Fancybox 1.3 (not WordPress plugin).
Everything works just fine but is it possible to show image caption
instead of title?

Thanks. :)

not totally sure what do you mean with image caption
anyways, have you tried
'titlePosition': 'outside'
//The position of title. Can be set to 'outside', 'inside' or 'over'

maybe 'inside' is what you expect as caption

Thanks, I try to be more specific.

If I insert image in Wordpress there are several options for text:
caption, title, alternate text. Currently Fancybox uses title but is
it possible to show only caption instead title. Caption appears under
my thumbnail so it would be less typing.

Thanks. :)

Hi,

it is a great plugin, indeed.

I would like to join this question, though. Is there a way to show an

image caption instead of title?

Image caption is a text that describes the image, usually displayed
next to it to provide viewers with more information about the scene in
the image.
For example: http://photography.nationalgeographic.com/photography/photo-of-the-day/#caption
- you can see the caption in the main column below the photo. I think
it can be encoded in each jpg file, in a field such as 'author' and
'rating'. Wordpress has it's own field to add this information to an
image in a library.

If this were possible, the plugin would be simply perfect.

Maybe update titles using some js magic before applying FB.

There is another fancybox plugin that shows captions if specified instead of the title... It's called myFancybox, u can find it at http://wordpress.transformnews.com/plugins/myfancybox-simple-fancybox-implementation-for-wordpress-4

Fancybox 2 requires a license and cannot be freely distributed as plugin.
I bet the author us unaware of that
