 * I am in the process of migrating a website from PHP7 (7.4.33) to PHP8 (8.2.30).
   That means, the site is physically copied from an old server to a new one. Unfortunately,
   the plugin behaves differently on the two PHP versions. The “Don’t show empty
   captions” option does not work any longer. Unlike the behavior under PHP7, the
   image is faded out even if there is no caption. Generally speaking, a caption
   should just be additionally displayed without hiding the image at all. However,
   this does not work either.
 * I assume that all the necessary software packages are available because there
   are no problems with other plugins (I migrated quite a few sites between the 
   same servers before). The problem is not limited to one special gallery, but 
   occurs equally in all galleries. Do you have a solution?
