Image Block Caption

Permalink
When using the Image block, there is an "Alt Text/Caption" field when choosing the image. Works great for the alt text. Is there a simple way of actually making this a caption as well, as it indicates?

Never mind, should have searched the forums more thoroughly before posting this. Found the answer sort of here:

Except I changed the code slightly;

I copied the controller.php from /concrete/blocks/image to blocks/image, found this line:

$img .= "/>";

And added a line right after:

$img .= "<div class=\"caption\">{$this->altText}</div>";

Works a treat.

controller.php is now "blank" in C5 version 5.6.3 (so your instructions do not apply) with php code that essentially is saying "drop your additions in here". How would we add a caption with this new controller.php? I tried using 12345J's add-on, but it is not working for me for some reason it does not save the work.
