Hi, I am doing this website for a school assignment. I am trying to cite my images without ruining the appearance of the website. How do I change the caption font and size?

Hi @haileyowchar, great question! I don’t think there’s a built-in way to change the font size of captions currently, and if you’ve got long citations I could see how that could get unwieldy, even with tiny fonts (which may not be legible.)

You’ll need to check on your required formatting, but are you allowed to cite at the end of the post or page?

We have to cite directly on or near the image but I am hoping the instructor will make an exception if there is no way to change the font size.

@haileyowchar would they allow you to group the image with a paragraph?

You could also upgrade the account to get custom CSS, which would then give you control over captions via script, but if this is just for a project I can imagine other solutions would be preferable.
