Hello, the theme just has the option to enable the caption in the single post feature image but if you want to add it on the home page there is no option you have to add it manually for example I added this caption on the home page by going to the following path the path depends on the style of the design you have used

inc/elementor/modules/penci-big-grid/widgets/based-post.php

and add the following code under the feature image code

<?php if(get_the_post_thumbnail_caption()) :?>    <div class="penci-featured-caption"><?php echo  get_the_post_thumbnail_caption() ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>

and you can customize the style of the caption in the custom CSS section

you can see the result in the attachment

hope it would help

Thanks

Hi,

If you don't mind me asking what is the custom code to add captions to the featured image? I to would love this feature to be added but not sure how to do it myself.

Thanks

Hi,

Almost the WordPress theme doesn't support this feature.

You can add the caption to the image inside the post content, but you can't add the caption to the featured image.

You can find the big grid template code at this path:

inc/elementor/modules/penci-big-grid/widgets/penci-big-grid.php

Hi,

Unfortunately, the current version of Soledad doesn't support adding the custom caption to the featured image.

We'll consider adding this feature in the future theme update.
