Dear Santa, please help the Substack developers prioritize the basics (like text wrapping around images). That's all I want for Christmas and since it's May when I'm writing this, I'm hopeful you and the elves will have adequate time to work on my request.
The links in this article are broken, there are no instructions on "how to" add image captions, and I am at a lost as to how to do this. No wonder I am struggling to learn how to use Substack. Either take these old articles down or keep them updated....PLEASE and thank you!
As of today (6/10/23) this feature appears to be broken, and furthermore I can no longer find a place on Substack's web site to submit a bug report. This morning I tried to submit a new article. The ellipsise that formerly appeared at the upper right of all images seems to be gone. I found a way to trick one image into adding text as a caption (which was to add the text the image and then backspace before the first character), but this worked only for the first image in the article. So now my article is stuck in "draft" until you fix this.
Thank you for this and I can't wait to try it out tomorrow for my daily newsletter. This is the missing piece for me, and I'm so glad to have this functionality.
Great addition, but I noticed this afternoon it seems to be adding too much white space under the photo when you DON'T add a caption. At least in the drafting page.
I've been using captions a lot, and they look great on the website version, but in the emails they appear pretty far below the picture. A lot of white space in between - which is extra confusing if you then have another photo right after, you can't tell which photo the text is captioning. Possible to tweak?
One more thing: I’ve been toying around with the idea of moving from my Wordpress blog to Substack full-time and so I want to know if captions in those wordpress posts would also be imported now that the feature is here?
Substack's new feature, introduced on November 3, 2020, allows users to add captions and alt text to images in their posts. This update enhances accessibility and improves reader engagement by providing context for images, which is especially valuable for visually impaired audiences or when images fail to load. Just like innovative features on platforms today—such as the https://www.snapplanetguide.com these tools help create a more user-friendly and inclusive experience.

Yes, text wrap. It's basic layout stuff.
Glad for the addition. I was confused why this wasn't available from the get-go, as a web accessibility standards that's existed since the 1.0 days.

I just experienced the same frustration.
I experimented and found if you click an image in edit mode, 3 dots appear in the top right. Click those.
yes, thank you! It took time but I figured it out as well. Best of luck with your Substack!

Can we add hyperlinks to the captions so we can properly source the photos?
I just tested it on one of my posts, you can format the caption like any other text: make it bold, italicize or add links.

💥 goes the 🧨.
Can a widget be added so that subscribers can add images to their comments?

I'm having exactly the same problem. Any advice?
One of the finest examples of better late than never! So glad to have this. Next, add keyboard shortcuts for Headings. :)

This is fantastic. We should all caption dog photos in our substacks
This is great for attribution and hopefully for SEO too.
