 * Hi there,
 * Is it possible to hide the video caption output in the widget (if empty the field
   is empty)? Because it is now creating an empty space below the video that messes
   up my lay-out.
 * Thank you very much in advance,
    Jan.

 * Hi,
 * I believe there is already a check in video sidebar widget and post meta video
   widget. I assume you are using the random video widget.
 * Please open up class-randomvideosidebarwidget.php and go to line 245.
    Find the
   following codes.
 * `echo "<p class=\"VideoCaption\">$rv_cap</p>";`
 * and replace with the following codes.
 * `if(!empty($rv_cap)){echo "<p class=\"VideoCaption\">$rv_cap</p>";};`
 * Thanks!

 * Thanks so much Denzel, this works perfect. Did indeed concern the random widget,
   perhaps worth including this in a next version?
 * Best,
    Jan.
