Add Image Caption to featured images

Hi

I would like to add Image Caption to Post Featured Images. Here is what I am talking about:

I am displaying the image by the theme’s Feature Image feature. I want to get the caption from the images’ Description field.

I would also like to add a hover effect. So that it pops up when someone hovers over the image. — If it isn’t possible, it is ok.

You can see an example live here.

Please let me know if it is possible.

Thanks!

I found this very helpful for doing more or less the same thing:

@TheMediumUTM I know how to do it manually. But I believe tagDiv has created a custom PHP script for the Featured Image feature. So I want to add it from there.

Ah, okay 🙂

Hi Lucian,

I have changed it but I am not sure about the style. Can you please kindly provide the CSS code to make it look like that?

Thanks

This is ridiculous. It shouldn’t be a long code. Just tell me how to do it so it overlaps and don’t show after the image. That’s all I want to know. How to make it so that it is at the bottom of the page and not after it?
