WordPress 2.6 and Captions
Last week, The Open Planning Project premiered a new blog called Gotham Schools. As a blogging platform, we decided to give the newly released WordPress 2.6 a go. The one feature WordPress added that excited us the most was the ability to add captions to images. Soon, however, we realized that WordPress/TinyMCE strips any html that is added to a caption.
I set out to fix this, and with the help of a couple of co-workers, I think I got something that works (change set). After the jump I have an overview of the problem and how it was fixed.
