When you edit a caption, the edits are not reflected in the editor’s gallery embed. This induces distrust and anxiety. With every caption change, I either Update or Preview the post to verify the changes. Both require scrolling and losing my place. Because I don’t trust changes that don’t show in the editor, I’ll preview again before publish so I can scrutinize the captions. This is a worry pattern.
#gallery-18 {
margin: auto;
}
#gallery-18 .gallery-item {
float: left;
margin-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
width: 33%;
}
#gallery-18 img {
border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
}
#gallery-18 .gallery-caption {
margin-left: 0;
}
