 * Hi, I am trying to add the image title to the slides and did exactly what you
   mentioned here:
    [http://www.jleuze.com/plugins/meteor-slides/customizing-the-slideshow-template/](http://www.jleuze.com/plugins/meteor-slides/customizing-the-slideshow-template/)
 * But as you can see at the link below, the image title doesn’t show, but the slideshow
   title shows instead (bottom left of images). How do I get it so the IMAGE title
   shows up? Or at least the caption or something other than the slideshow title?

 * You can get the metadata of the slide images to load the title, alt text, or 
   other content, but I wouldn’t recommend doing this unless you really have to.
   It is hard to manage the content of the slide captions because you can’t edit
   it directly from the slide posts, you have to go dig in the media library for
   the slide images.
 * If you need a short caption, no more than a sentence, the slide title is the 
   way to go. Otherwise, if you want a paragraph of text, I would add excerpts to
   the slides and load those as slide captions. Take a look at this thread on [adding excerpts to Meteor Slides](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-meteor-slides-possible-to-have-text-as-well?replies=52#post-2287776)
   for more info.
 * Often I’ll use both to have a caption with a headline and a blurb below it.
