We use photos on our blog. How do I add a caption to photos, including credits?

This is possible with some HTML editing - Upload your photo to your page then in the HTML editor cut/paste your image url in the following code:

<table class="image">
<caption align="bottom">caption text</caption>
<tr><td><img ...></td></tr>
</table>

    I have had people working on our site asking for captions as well. They don’t know how to add HTML so if this was easier that would be great.

    This doesn’t work if you are trying to do word wrap around an image. The table goes across the entire page. Maybe there is a way to do this with html?

    I mean, it’s nice that you can actually add a caption, but why does NationBuilder make it so hard to do so? NB hasn’t actually fixed the problem. The problem is one of usability. NB should simply create a caption option within the image insertion screen.

    Note: the question was in 2016. I was never able to get it to work.
