Links in photo captions

I'm working on a slight variation of the photo gallery, and
want to put links in the captions I've created in the XML file. my
captions show up without a problem, but whenever i put a link in
the <caption> </caption> field, the whole caption
doesn't display.
Anyone a ) had experience with captions in the spry photo
gallery and b ) have any idea how to put a link in the caption, and
have it show up?
any help would be REALLY appreciated. I'd love to share my
project with the community when it's done, maybe be some help to
anyone else out there!

I believe what you are after is this:
<caption><![CDATA[<a href="foo.html">This is
my Caption!</a>]]></caption>
We have a sample that talks about how to embed HTML in your
XML here:

Photo Caption Link to YouTube?

I was unsuccessful in linking a photo caption in an album to a corresponding video on YouTube. Can it be done? Can you think of a good alternative? Thanks - Fabe

You could try Video Lightbox......

It works the same kind of way that Visual Lightbox does.....

How do I link Photo Title and Photo Caption in iPhoto Book

When using the yearbook template in iPhoto I have found that the Title is not linked to the photo Captions are linked most of the time, so if I move a photo I have to reset all the titles. How can I link them?

hi Jim,
Are the titles that are not moving ones that you gave the photos while you were in the book mode?
I was just wondering if you gave the titles to the photos in the library view if it would work differently.
Ok, I just tested it. Before you make the book, give all the photos the correct titles and comments if any. Now highlight that album and choose to create a book. The titles and comments will move with the images this way.
I also tested an image that was already placed in the book and it had a title that it was imported as. I changed the title in the library view, went back to the book and moved the photo. The title that I just gave it in the library view moved with the photo.

Photo Caption text can't be hyperlinked

I posted earlier about this problem and yesterday I spoke, at length, to Apple Tech. Here is their answer:
When you are building your website with iWeb, and you chose the photo page to hold photos the photo captions (the text under the photos) can not be turned into a hyperlink that works when you are viewing the photo as a full screen single image. Although you can build the hyperlink while using iWeb, and that hyperlink will work in the testing phase, once published, that link will no longer work.
That hyperlink you made in the photo caption text will only work as a hyperlink if you are viewing your photo page in the "album view" with a page of thumbnail images. If the text you made into a hyperlink is visible while viewing that page in a photo album view, that text WILL hyperlink. But if you click on that thumbnail to enlarge, the hyperlinked text will no longer work as a hyperlink.
Fixing this bug entails digging into the html code of that photo page.
I sent Apple Feedback a post asking them to fix this bug.

Have you tried Cmd+X and then Cmd+F on the text object?

Photo Caption into Hyperlink

Hi Everyone,
Earlier today, while working in an iWeb photo template page, I attempted to make one sentence of the photo caption into a hyperlink. The inspector would not respond to the highlighted text. Is it possible to link a caption or am I just missing some simple step?
Thanks
iMac 24, 2.33 Intel core duo with 2 GB SD-Ram Mac OS X (10.4.8)

iweb doesn't allow photo (in photo grid) and photo
captions to be hyperlinked.
The work around is overlaying graphic shape or text
box over the caption, set opacity to 1%, then add
hyperlink to it.
Thanks for providing me with an easy work around.

Photo captions in iWeb

Greetings,
I'm just creating my first site using iWeb but I am having trouble with photo captions. I am using a blank template and inserting photos into the text with a wrap round. that's fine. However, I can't work out how to put captions under the photos. I've tried using a text box but it won't drag up close to the photo,because some of the handles remain white and the text on the page moves away from the box so it looks bad. . I've searched through help but can't find an answer there.
If anyone has any thoughts I'd be grateful

Your problem is that you cannot follow instructions even when they are spelled out.
The instruction is not to DROP an image on the textbox, the instruction is to PASTE the image in the textbox.
UPDATE:
Here s a picture.
1. A picture
2. The picture in the textbox with a caption.
3. The picture in the textbox with a caption inside a textbox with your text wrapped around it.

Lightroom 5.0 on Windows 7 - Photo Caption problem in Book Module

Using Lightroom 5.0 on Windows 7, I have produced a 76 page book in the Book Module with multiple photos on most pages, but two photos were not showing their captions, and did not print same in a proof PDF print run. I had the photo captions in the Meta Data, but have subsequently entered the pertinent photo caption via Custom Text from the left control panel, and also directly into the photo caption print box without success. I have changed the photo size, without a successful outcome, but when I did an auto cell fill of the photo the caption appeared within the photo, but disappeared when sizing was reduced back. I have exhausted all help avenues at this stage.

Thanks for your input and efforts to assist. I have resisted removing and replacing, as the 1966 passport photo has a lengthy (approx 60) adjustments showing in the history, as a result of its age. Hence I think that I will just have tolerate these somewhat minor, I suppose, aberrations and just send it off to Blurb as is, as restoring so many old photos to a more presentable print status has taken me 3 months as it is.
I don't understand why this a problem. You are removing a page from the book and adding back again. You are not removing the photo from the catalog, therefore you would not loose you are adjustments. Books are just another way of rendering photos.

Photo cutlines / photo captions

Greetings.
I discovered an easy css technique for laying out pages with
photos and captions -- cutlines in newspaper lingo:
http://max.limpag.com/2006/10/15/better-photo-presentation-in-your-website-in-2-easy-steps /
I didn't see captions or cutlines in any search topics here,
so I thought I'd add it.
If anyone else uses a different technique for photo captions,
feel free to add it to this thread.

IWeb photo captions published via ftp?

I'm new to iWeb - are photo captions published via ftp now that MobileMe is defunct? The info in Publish Site says no. As I wish to use photos purchased and downloaded from a stock agency, they must be captioned with the photographer's name. I can work around this by acknowledging the photographers in a list above the Album I've created rather than under each photo (if this proves to be acceptable to the stock agency), but this isn't ideal. Thanks for any advise you can offer.

Captions added to the images inside a photos template are published no matter where you publish your website.
The number of caption lines is chosen in the photo Grid popup window...

Can I write photo captions in Elements 12 and upload the Photo to Revel, keeping the same Caption?

Can I write photo captions in Elements 12 and upload the Photo to Revel, keeping the same Caption?

Yes. Even if you edit Captions post uploading to Revel from Elements Organizer, the updated caption syncs to Revel.

IWeb Photo Captioning from Aperture Metadata

I'm not sure if this should be under iWeb or Aperture. I use Aperture 2.1 and iWeb '08 2.0.3. In iWeb I have albums of photos from Aperture. When using the media browser for adding Aperture photos into iWeb, the standard nomenclature is for the iWeb caption to use the Aperture 'Version Name'. Since iWeb can be set to have more than one caption line, I was wondering if there was a way to map Aperture metadata into the multiple lines of iWeb photo captions? As it is, any additional iWeb caption lines have to be added manually. Can this additional caption information be added automatically?

I'm banging my head on this too.. I prefer to use iWeb for several reasons: one is that I publish to a non-Apple webhost; and I prefer the editing capabilities of iWeb vs Aperture/iPhoto -- plus the templates are more varied.
It's hard to believe that Apple doesn't provide this extremely basic capability. I've noticed other threads on this & it doesn't seem that it's possible.

How to transfer the photo captions from Photoshop Elements 12 organizer to Adobe Revel albums ?

How to transfer the photo captions from Photoshop Elements 12 organizer to Adobe Revel albums ?

Thks for the contribution. However, it seems I cannot solve my problem with the kindly proposed solution.
Let me rephrase my problem:
I off-line prepare, organize photos and also add manually individual photo captions with PE12 Organizer. In the properties panel, I can check that the photo properties (including captions) are properly associated with the photo.
However when I upload on Revel -directly with PE12 Organizer (selecting Share/Private Web Album)- these individual (accordingly captioned) photos or albums, I cannot find the photo captions (i.e. the photo caption did not directly show up with the photo in Revel). This obliges me to a double work by copying and pasting each photo caption.
Is there any plan to get rid of that ?
Let me add that I am using the French version of PE12

Photo captions via Bridge?

My second inDesign project is a catalog with lots of photos, but not a photo for every item. I watched the Bridge training video and it looked like I could add a headline or description in Metadata that would import as a photo caption when I placed a photo. Did I misunderstand? I keep editing metadata and dragging photos into my ID document from Bridge - photo goes correctly - but no caption. Since it is very easy to mis-identify these catalog photos, this little piece of automation would be a great help, if anyone can tell me how to make it work.
Thanks in advance.

I stumbled on this after a lot of (unscuccessful) searching for an answer. Finally, found a solution after fiddling around with Bridge itself:
1. In Bridge, click on Metadata (at the top), and then in the IPT Core panel at left, click on the edit icon (pencil) next to Title. You can then add titles for each picture, or multi-select pictures and add the same title for the selected group of pictures. Note: You MUST do this in the Title, not under Description or any similar parameters.
2. After titling (captioning) the pictures, click on Output (at top) and under Image Info, check the Caption box. In the dropdown, select Title. (This is why you needed to select Title in the first step and not Description which is not offered as a choice in the dropdown).
3. Create your Gallery as you normally would, and you will see the captions appear in your web output.
Hope this helps!

Globally changing selected parts of photo captions

Is there a way to make batch changes to parts of photo captions? Something like "find and change" in word processing software.
For instance, I accidentally had the time setting wrong on my camera so that AM was PM and vice versa. I would like to change the AM to PM without affecting the actual time associated with images. This will be very tedious if I have to do it manually...

Hi Dave,
Oh, so you have been appending the batch change entries -that explains it.
The "Title" field can be batch changed like any other field, only you have to find and to select a suitable Metadata Preset that contains the "Title" field.
I have changed my presets so often, that I am no longer sure, if one of the standard presets contains this field, but you can easily define your own preset, containing all fields you want to edit.
In the Metadata tab of the Inspector Panel set the "Metadata View" selector to "Edit",
In the "Metadata Views" panel click the cogwheel to add a new view and name it,
From the right column of the panel add the "Title" tag to the new View (this tag is located in the IPTC -> Status section of the Metadata Fields.
Then use this new preset in the "Batch Change" dialogue.
Regards
Léonie
