 * I have a case where images have avery detailed captions. Some of which have 750
   + characters. It appears that WordPress cuts off the captions at a certain point.
 * Is there a way to increase the number characters allowed in a caption?

 * Is this happening within the WordPress admin or on the page/post youre trying
   to view it on? I just tested on a vanilla install and was able to put 2400 characters
   in a caption and it showed up fine in the post editor and in the post.
