    Hi

    I'm using the MakerPro theme, and have an issue where the excerpt for posts in a post list is also pulling through the image caption as the first line of the excerpt.

    I've specified captions against images, which I want to keep in place, but I want to strip them out from the excerpt. In other words, the excerpt should just contain the opening words from the article content, and not the caption. It's also an option for the excerpt to use the post snippet from Yoast.

    Any ideas on how I can achieve this?

    You could ask the theme Developer to fix this as its sounds like a bug in the theme code.

    I've never seen this problem in any StudioPress child themes.

    @steveerrey do yo have Gutenberg (block editor) enabled on the site? You said:

    ...excerpt for posts in a post list

    Is that a Post List from the blocks?

    Another user has a similar issue and he converted a post from the classic editor to blocks and then the issue presented itself.

    I'm using Thrive Architect to build out the page, and have raised a ticket with them, as it could be related to how they're pulling content through in that block.

    @steveerrey this may be an issue with Gutenberg. Check out this forum post here - https://studiopress.community/topic/image-caption-shows-up-in-side-bar-widget-with-gutenberg/#post-494411.
