Photo caption style same as ordinary text after last update Magazine Pro

[RobCubbon]

Hello, when I'm adding images in blog posts, I type a caption under the images when I create the WordPress blog post. This use to be nice and small and tucked under the image as it should be, looking like it's a line or two describing the photo.

Since the last upgrade I think it's now in the same paragraph style of the text of the blog post and is confusing.

it's <figcaption> not <p> ... surely they are different styles in the CSS?

I suppose I could write my own in the child theme CSS, but I don't get it. Where's the old style gone that used to be there?

Hello again. I think I "fixed" it.

Forgive me it's been ages since I did any CSS with a Genesis theme.

Here's what I did. In WordPress I went Themes > Appearance > click on the Child Theme

Then I clicked on Additional CSS and then added

figcaption {font-size: 14px;}

... and Published and that seemed to do the trick.

It's not the way I used to do it. I used to edit the style.css of the child theme but WordPress has changed a lot since then.

Am I right to be doing it this way?
