.wp-caption-text {
display: none;
}

That should do it!

none of these lines of code worked for me in 2.6.2 I don’t know what I’m supposed to wrap around that code…I assume a php tag?! I tried that and it didn’t get rid of my captions.

i’m no php coder..just front end coder. what else is missing to make this one line take out the caption in the functions.php file?

What I really want is for the caption only not to show up in the excerpts..

I’m not using the excerpt custom field, instead I’m using this in index.php to pull the first 600 words or so from each post…that way there is less work to do of picking an appropriate section to copy and paste to the excerpt field!

I’m using this code:


post_excerpt, 0, $len); //truncate excerpt according to $len
if(strlen($newExcerpt) post_excerpt)) {
$newExcerpt = $newExcerpt."[...]";
// get rid of the [caption]s
}
echo "".$newExcerpt.""; //finally display excerpt
?>


Can’t I just get the caption tag not to show up in that…I wish it would just display how it’s supposed to in a full blog post! as a caption!

I’m trying to remove the alt/title tags from the drop down menus on my wordpress navbar, ie. what’s happening now is the drop down menu is composed of image boxes… so when the user hovers their mouse over the drop down menu, the corresponding alt tag for the image pops up, and blocks the menu text below :S

Thanks in advance for any help!

Above the code:
if(is_home() || is_front_page()) {

Below the code:
}

This will make it so that the function only gets executed on the home page (or whatever page you’ve designated as the front page).
