 * Hi there, could you let me know which image you’re trying to caption? It’s not
   possible to add a caption to the header graphic:

 * Or is it this one?

 * I haven’t been able to replicate the issue on my end. Could you let me know if
   you’re able to caption images on any other posts or pages?
 * Can you add a caption when you first insert the image, on the Attachment Details
   screen, like you see here?

 * The image I am having trouble with is on the My Story page. (It is of myself 
   and my dog Tucker in China.) I tried deleting it and reinserting it, adding the
   caption at the Attachment Details screen, but each time though the caption appears
   when I’m editing the page in the dashboard, it doesn’t load to the website. I
   tried selecting a smaller size, 80%, to see if that would help; it didn’t.
 * I checked on other pages; I put a caption under the pug on the Contact page and
   that worked fine. (I have removed it because I don’t want a caption there.) I’m
   also able to put captions on the photos in the gallery. It’s just that one page
   I’m having trouble with. (Funny, there’s another issue with that one page that
   isn’t working that works fine on the other pages, but that’s another thread.)
 * Thank you for your response, Kathryn, and for trying to help me figure this out.

 * Looks like you sorted this out by turning it into a page instead of a post. 🙂
