perhaps you could explain your feature request a bit more fully. what do you mean by caption? the title is displayed on the flickr/* pages...

and here again, why can't you do it in a theme function?

Sorry for cheekily opening this issue. Like the original poster, I too would love the Flickr module to be able to pull a photo's "description" text from Flickr and display it under the photo.

So, for example, say I had a photo with ID=012345678 which was described on Flickr as "ascending numbers". Then if I inserted [flickr-photo:id=012345678,size=b,caption] into my Drupal node then the caption ("ascending numbers") would be displayed under the photo in a way which allow me to theme the caption.

If this functionality can be achieved using a theme function then please could you provide a few hints as to how to go about this?

Many thanks,
Jack

This is now in the D7 dev version. If you still need it for D6, open a new issue with a request to back port.

This feature doesn't seem to be in the current production version. Is it still in Dev? (see related: #2606510: How to use Flickr Description as caption rather than Title?)

It is in all recent D7 versions of the module. See the demo at http://lolandese.altervista.org/.
