I added a simple image upload field to a form. You can see the preview of the values I submitted and then what got stored in the media gallery. <a href="http://minus.com/mbg8Mgio81bg9k" rel="nofollow">http://minus.com/mbg8Mgio81bg9k</a></p> <p>Is that not your experience? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/image-caption-appearing-in-alt-field-when-image-is-loaded#post-130832 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 23:00:52 +0000 UTWnow 130832@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>A bump for this issue.</p> <p>It seems odd to me that when you provide a field called "caption" that you don't actually place the text into the post media's "caption" field -- instead of alt text.</p> <p>Is there some roadblock that prevents you from addressing that field?</p> <p>I'd like for my client not to have to edit the submitted photos just to copy the alt text to the caption field.</p> <p>Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/image-caption-appearing-in-alt-field-when-image-is-loaded#post-32348 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 21:12:25 +0000 ycb 32348@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm having the same issue -- captions end up as alt text and are not viewable. How to output the caption (Image Metadata) of an uploaded image? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/image-caption-appearing-in-alt-field-when-image-is-loaded#post-24850 Thu, 05 May 2011 12:25:22 +0000 DesignWerks 24850@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a form with an image upload and "Caption" selected for Image Metadata, however when the form is completed and an image is uploaded, the text entered into the "Caption" field in the form appears in the "Alternate Text" field of the Image Editor instead of under "Caption", thereby not showing up as a caption in my theme unless I edit and copy and paste it into the correct field. </p>
