 * Hi there,
    I use Lightroom extensively and currently none of the fields seem 
   to fill the WP caption field. Is this something that your plugin would be able
   to solve? Many thanks Matt

 * Thanks for the question. Yes, Media Library Assistant will let you map any of
   your IPTC or EXIF metadata to standard WordPress fields, such as the caption,
   as well as taxonomy terms and custom fields.
 * Once the plugin is installed you can go to the Settings/Media Library Assistant
   screen and select the IPTC/EXIF tab. There you will find the “Standard field 
   mapping” section, which includes the WordPress Title, Name/slug, Alternate Text,
   Caption and Description fields.
 * You can select any of the IPTC values set by Lightroom, such as “2#005 object-
   name” or “2#012 subject-reference” for the Caption field. You can also enter 
   any of the EXIF values, such as “COMPUTED.UserComment”. You can enter both IPTC
   and EXIF values and select which one takes priority if both are coded.
 * You can use the “ALL_IPTC” and “ALL_EXIF” pseudo-values to look at all the data
   and see which fields are populated by Lightroom. This is explained on the Documentation
   tab.
 * I hope that gets you started on mapping your metadata to Media Library items.
   If you have any problems or further questions, please let me know. Enjoy the 
   plugin!

 * That’s great thanks for the quick and comprehensive reply. I’ll get going with
   it and see how it goes.
    Thanks very much
