This was posted to me in a private message. Update. So I went back to my post and deleted the pictures and reinserted them WITH captions. Then scrolling down the thread, I opened the next picture posted and it had the caption for the last picture I posted. So it seems that the caption is sticky until someone enters one on another photo. Farther down, there's a photo I think by Martin that has no caption, so I don't know what's going on there, unless he entered a space for the caption of that picture, which I doubt. Then farther down, Tuts posted a couple pics with captions, then Martin posted another which got the caption from Tuts' last photo. So, it appears that, if an image does not have a caption, it displays the caption from the last image that did have a caption. Is this by design?

Could we get a link to a page exhibiting this behavior?
Are these captions being added to an image through a gallery or attachment upload, or are these HTML inserts?

We are in the process of finalizing code changes for a new build with PHP8.3 capability, and Isaac has been on vacation; we'll work on seeing if there's a reason for this behavior when time permits.

Any update on this issue? It's been quite a while, and the issue kind of gums up the works a bit. Just following up for Baldeagle (I'm a moderator on the forum he's the tech guy for.)
Thanks for any update.

Another ping.
We've had to do some workarounds to keep unrelated photo captions from appearing on photos further down a thread.
An update would be appreciated.
Thanks

This seems to be a first time reported issue with the code and I do not recall any patch in the new version that resolves it.
I could be wrong.

Coming up on a year since this issue was reported. We've been dealing with it for way too long. It's still happening. If someone puts a caption on a photo, that same caption appears on all the photos in a thread, unless someone adds a caption to another photo, then that one gets duplicated on subsequent photos.
We'd really like to quit dealing with this. We've tried training our members to ALWAYS add a caption to their photos, but with little success.

There is a simple fix. Add the following line to the file showflat.inc.php $file_descp = ""; Add it right before the following code. if ($file_desc) { $file_descp = "<p>" . $file_desc . "</p>"; }

"</p>"; } I sent your fix to our IT guy and he says that it will be erased whenever the software updates. It would be really nice if a more permanent fix was implemented, as the caption carryover is STILL occurring.

I went ahead an implemented the fix. We'll see if it works and doesn't break anything.
