I am using this excellent piece of code to insert a line break in single image captions by way of inserting a pipe character...
Now I would like your help to try to incorporate this into the gallery image captions too.
Here's the original code that works for single image captions. My attempt at the gallery code is below.
/*
*********************************************
Function to allow multi-line photo captions.
This function will split captions onto multiple lines if it detects
a "|" (pipe) symbol.
**********************************************
*/
/* Override existing caption shortcode handlers with our own */
add_shortcode('wp_caption', 'multiline_caption');
add_shortcode('caption', 'multiline_caption');
/* Our new function */
function multiline_caption($attr, $content = null) {
extract(shortcode_atts(array(
'id' => '',
'align' => 'alignnone',
'width' => '',
'caption' => ''
), $attr));
if ( 1 > (int) $width || empty($caption) )
return $content;
if ( $id ) $id = 'id="' . esc_attr($id) . '" ';
$new_caption = str_replace("|", "<br />", $caption);
return '<div ' . $id . 'class="wp-caption ' . esc_attr($align) . '" style="width: ' . (10 + (int) $width) . 'px">'
. do_shortcode( $content ) . '<p class="wp-caption-text">' . $new_caption . '</p></div>'; }
Original code by Mark Wood: http://digitalnotions.net/multi-line-captions-in-wordpress
Here is my attempt with the gallery shortcode in functions.php file
This is basically the code copied from wp-includes/media.php gallery function.
I've amended the output function at the end of this code (original code commented) to try to get the pipe in there, but it's not working on my gallery captions !
Your help greatly appreciated.
