Featured Post Image Captions – How To Add On Homepage??

[Sonicview]

Hello,

I've spent the better part of 5 hours trying to figure this out.

- Genesis Framework, freshly downloaded
- Metro Pro v2.0

I am showing the latest posts on my index page using the 'Genesis - Featured Posts' widget in the 'home-top', 'home-middle-left' and home-middle-right' positions. The widget has a checkbox so that posts aren't repeated as well as a checkbox to include thumbnail images which is great but for the life of me I cannot find a way to include the image caption along with those thumbnail images.

I'd like to show image caption, thumbnail image, post title and post snippet for each entry but there doesn't appear to be a way to include the image caption with the featured posts widget? This is a bit of a deal breaker for me, if you can suggest a way to include the image caption along with the thumbnail image I would be most grateful.

I don't have a url to share (dev site) but I hope the above is pretty clear.

Bill's code snippet is great but doesn't say exactly where to put it. Is there further info there?

@mpet29 He does in the comments but i doubt it will work with the genesis featured posts widget.
