Content sets whether the caption is in this widget or elsewhere on the page, the image and its size, the caption source and text, the element ID, whether it starts hidden, and the button labels. The Style tab covers the image, the caption and the button.
03 / Website use cases
Where to use image caption disclosure
Long captions, photo credits and quiz answers can clutter a layout or give the game away, but hiding them often means a script that screen readers cannot use. Image caption disclosure puts the caption behind a real button with aria-expanded, shows it with a click, Enter or Space, and keeps it visible when JavaScript is off.
Photo credits
Keep credits available but out of the way.
Long descriptions
Let visitors open detailed notes on demand.

08 / Common setup problems
Troubleshoot image caption disclosure
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why is there no button?
The image has no caption, or the element ID was not found on the page.
Why is the caption always shown?
JavaScript is off or blocked, so it stays readable.
Where do I find an element ID?
In the other widget's Advanced tab, CSS ID.
Why did some formatting disappear?
Only bold, italic and links are kept.
Image caption disclosure plugin questions
Does it need Elementor Pro?
No. It works with the free version of Elementor.
Is anything sent to a server?
No. Showing and hiding happens in the visitor's browser and nothing is saved.
Does it work with page caching?
Yes. The visitor-specific part is done in the browser, so a cached page stays correct.
Does it need JavaScript?
Yes, for the live part. Without it the widget falls back gracefully, as described above.
Is it accessible?
Yes. It is a real button with aria-expanded and aria-controls, usable with the keyboard.
