Image Caption (image-caption) free WordPress plugin

Extracts the title or alt attribute from images within your blog post and generates a neat caption directly underneath those images. Supports custom CSS styling for captions.

Features:

• generates image caption using img tag’s title or alt attribute
• standards compliant: valid XHTML
• degrades gracefully when disabled
• supports images with links (e.g. to higher resolution of the same image)
• supports MyCSS by disabling default CSS import
• supports custom CSS class for div image container
• automatically adds width and height attribute to your image
• does not write to your WordPress database

Usage

Once activated, you can start adding caption to your image by adding title attribute to it:

<img src="/images/picture.jpg" alt="" class="center" title="A sample caption">

CSS classes supported “out of the box” are: center, alignleft, alignright.

If you prefer to use “alt” attribute for the generation of image caption, open the php file and change $ic_att to “alt” instead of “title”.

More usage details can be found at the plugin’s homepage.
