Also, if anyone finds this thread looking for Rubric, vkaryl has updated it for me, see the thread here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/84258?replies=16

I'm getting some replies on WP.org, which is nice. I'm surprised there's not an IRC channel. Anyways, I'd just like to get it working and put it up on my blog so someone else doesn't have to rework it. :)

drmike, thanks for the link. I had found that version, the only problem I have (at least right now) is that it doesn't support widgets. I'm trying to code it in myself, since I can't seem to find how to get the version wordpress.com already fixed. Unfortunately I'm not much of a coder, so it's going slowly.

edit: I found an older verion for WordPress 1.5 of Rubric for download here. You can try and see if it works for you.

I'm afraid there's no docs on this subject, at least I've never seen such.

meantime, the quotation in my post above remains a wishful thinking, sometimes I use a cheap trick to make a caption using a 1x1 cell TABLE element.

while it may work for now (and it does), nevertheless it's an outdated and deprecated technic which returns us back into 1996.

basically it looks like the following snippet:

<table>
<caption align="bottom">
Caption text goes here
</caption>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<img ... />
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

honestly, it doesn't worth it to bother with caption here (and now) cause it really 'would be nice to have' for WP users a control 'Use description as a caption' in the image upload section so that caption style, image border and so on all would be consistent with the theme is being used.

otherwise it may look rather randomly and distracting. the only point of captions in some of my posts is to inform a visitor they are going to open a new browser window.

PS darn, looks like they really don't want user to see the code: forum choked it down but ate all indendts I put in it to ease its readabilty.

so, once again it just proves that it doesn't worth to fiddle with any code on WP. ever.

>>>In the src tag where you call the image use align="left" or "right" or whatever you need. You might also want to add "padding" tag too.<<<

But what about captions? Will Options post a caption solution?

(So afraid it's all spelled out in the documentation and I'm wasting time & space.)

Thanks all!

<p><img ... /></p><p> ... </p>

or simply add a linebreak element after IMG if you want they belong to the same paragraph:

<p><img ... /><br /> ... </p>

btw: "we don’t want people to have to look at HTML and CSS code, which is antithetical to the purpose of WordPress.com".

But there is just one problem.
How do i get the text back below the image instead of appearing on the right side?

I've tried using the < p > code but it doesn't work.

As you can see in this post on my blog the text wraps the image.

The src for it is like so...
<br /> http://marc.wordpress.com/files/2006/04/fulford-porsche1.jpg" align="left" alt="Fulford Porsche" /><br />

Thanks, in advance. Pablo

As you are self hosted you'll need to pose your question (and get a decent response) over at the wordpress.org site.

wordpress.org Support forum

EDIT: Having re-read the question, it's easy. In the src tag where you call the image use align="left" or "right" or whatever you need. You might also want to add "padding" tag too.

Of course, you can do this for .img in the css too to apply for all images.

Sorry!

how do I get the text to wrap around the image? all I can get is one line sat at the bottom of the image, i'm using the image upload plugin, is that the problem? because i'm inserting the image when I'm writing the article. I read the codex help, but i still can't see what i'm going wrong...
