EasyImageCaption

Introduction

The EasyImageCaption plugin for Joomla generates captions from article images’ title or alt attributes and displays them below (or above) the images. An optional data-copyright attribute can be used to display copyright or license information for the image next to the caption.

How It Works

EasyImageCaption works out-of-the-box. After installation through Joomla’s extension manager, you just have to enable it, and all your article images will automatically show captions on front-end pages. You may however restrict “captionizing” to certain images or certain articles through the plugin parameters.

The generated source code is 100% valid HTML5 for maximum browser compatibility and smooth integration into your website. Captions will also work on responsive websites (depending on your template, you may have to add some additional CSS).

The captions can be styled individually through your template’s CSS file(s) or through the built-in basic style settings.

I used this to: adding captions to some pictures on my site. You can do that by excluding certain classes (like sigFreeImg for Simple Image Gallery by JoomlaWorks) or by using EasyImageCaption for a specific class only. Tab General Settings offers lots of options.

not work with intro image in article.

I used this to: image captions

Owner's reply: That's right. But EasyImageCaption hasn't been designed to do so, because intro images work differently. Their HTML (including captions) is defined in view files, which allow overriding. So you can easily adjust the look in your template.

EasyImageCaption provides the same for article images that get inserted through a text editor, because there is no other (easy) way to add captions to them.

So your review only states the obvious - EasyImageCaption does not handle intro images. It isn't meant to do so, and it doesn't need to.

Very easy to use and useful plugin
