Caption in Views Slideshow not working correctly

Issue Summary

The Caption on the Flexslider Views Slideshow is using a 'P' element as wrapper around the caption field. It should work like
<p class="flex-caption"><FIELD></p>

but it works like:
<p class="flex-caption"></p><FIELD>
So the Field caption tekst is placed outside the caption tags. This also fails using the P element directly within views. So it looks as if it goes wrong there. But to solve this we can use a SPAN around the caption field. this can be done via changing line 57 in flexslider_views_slideshow.module to

$view->field[$fieldname]->options['element_type'] = 'span';

This solution works perfectly.
