Adding a caption to an image

To add a caption to an image:

  1. In the editor, click the image you want to add a caption to.
  2. Click the Insert/edit image icon. You can also right-click the image and select Image.
  3. In the dialog box, click the Advanced tab.
  4. Check Use figure and figcaption for this image.
  5. Click Ok. The word Caption appears underneath your image.
  6. Replace the Caption text with your own.

Captions are a good fit when an image needs context that the surrounding text does not already give. For guidance on when to caption and how captions relate to alt text, see the WYSIWYG guide.
