 * I would like to use PHP to submit the Featured Image Caption value for a post(
   in lieu of the form field). This would add a layer of automation to my site as
   given categories share the same caption. I have figured out the “where” of adding
   this function but now need the “what”. Please advise. Thank you.

 * Thanks for the question! I haven’t really given much thought to supporting this,
   but this isn’t the first time I’ve gotten a question like this. I’ll add it to
   my list of things to work on.

 * Thank you. On a related note, can you tell me where I can find information on
   automatic caption appending?
