 * Although this plugin works with WordPress v3.4.1 it is not working completely.
   But it works much better than many other Lightbox plugins I tried.
 * The setting “Enable caption” does not use the caption that is set for the image.
   It is showing the name of the image, sans file extension, instead of what is 
   written in the Caption field for the image. If you do not want the “ugly” filename
   shown you need to disable “Enable caption”. But that leaves you with no text 
   at all.

 * Hi, sorry for the delayed reply, WP stopped sending me emails about forum posts
   🙁
 * Can you provide a link that exhibits the issue you’re experiencing? SLB uses 
   the caption set via WP’s admin as the first choice in [caption precedence](http://archetyped.com/lab/slb-tweaking-caption-precedence/),
   though this can sometimes be inadvertently overridden (e.g. manually inserted
   links, etc.)
 * Also, usually when you see a caption that looks like the image’s file name without
   the extension (e.g. ‘image-of-bunnies-001’), it is the image’s title that is 
   automatically generated by WP (using the file’s name).
