i've now got it to work using a code i found on another query but that is only when the images are in a 'simple' grid - I'd like it to work for a masonry grid.

Many thanks in advance,

Yva

Hi everyone,

Looking for a solution to showing the captions of the images only when they are in a lightbox - I want the caption to show beneath the image. I've tried a number of similar solutions asked by others previously but to no avail.
