Gallery with text and button on the images

Recommended Posts

Hi there, I want to create a page which should serve as my homepage. On top,  I intend to show a gallery with images slide automatically. So far so good. However, I don't have the chance to add a text and button as I can when I use a banner. How do I do that? Screenshot 1 shows the way I have it now, screenshot 2 how I would like it to be, of course I'd like to keep my typo like I have it on a banner (screenshot 3).
 

Any ideas how I can get started?

You'll need to provide a little more information as the solution will depend on the template/version you are using.

Hi there @paul2009 + @tuanphan

I use BEAUMONT and versos 7.1. 

@tuanphan I enabled caption but there is no option to put a text on the images as it can be done with a banner. Squarespace responded that I can only do it with coding. I would like to use a gallery on top of my homepage to highlight the latest or most important articles. So this is what people see first. Without a text at least + ideally a button I will only confuse website visitors.

All I can do is to add a description so you see a small paragraph below the image. However that's not useful. 

I would really love to figure this out. I used to code when I was using MySpace. :-)
