7.1 Lightbox captions

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://hexahedron-glockenspiel-dngt.squarespace.com/karl-lindgren-1

In the process of building a test site that I want to present to a client this week. I've been fiddling with some code injections and css to achieve something that I think is starting to look great. 

One thing. I NEED image captions to show up in the lightbox and be legible - i.e. not run across the image. I've tried different code injections from different forum topics, some work better than others, but none really get the job done. The one I found that did kinda work also added a second set of image captions for all images in the gallery and this is undesirable. I want captions to appear below images in the lightbox without affecting what I have already created elsewhere on the rest of the site. 

At the moment I have image captions displaying on hover over the gallery sections sitewide (which I like), but in the lightbox they're not there. This is important, they need to show up in the lightbox, ideally running BELOW the images so that it is clearly readable. This is the crucial page where I'm stuck at the moment https://hexahedron-glockenspiel-dngt.squarespace.com/karl-lindgren-1

Help! Please!

Ciao,
