 * Hello,
 * I have an issue with caption on fixed columns galleries with polaroid captions.
 * The problem is related with this padding value (40%):

 * If I set it like at 0% like so I can see the caption:
 * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/vrGpJt2)
 * But I can’t find a way to do that permanently for all the images of my gallery
   with custom html (since the shortcode block doesn’t have a custom CSS option).
   I tried a LOT of things and also tweaked every settings of the gallery with no
   luck.
 * Could you please tell me how to fix that?
 * Also, if there is a way to put those captions above the images please tell me
   how, it would be perfect.
 * Thanks a lot in advance.

 * If anyone has the same issue, and since the support of this plugin is always 
   so prompt to help (…), I finally found a way to fix that after a lot of research.
 * You’ll need to add this CSS to the custom CSS of your website theme:
 *     ```
       figure {
         display: table;
       }
       figcaption {
         display: table-caption;
         caption-side: top;
       }
       ```
