I've put the courtesy in the captions but they look so big that takes the attention out of the text close to the image... Any help is appreciated!
How do I change the size of image captions in wordpress?

You can perhaps attach picture (as a reply to my reply) of the situation you have on the screen, so that I can see what the problem is. I have many photos and have never a problem of that kind.
If you type courtesy the same way as the rest of the caption it should look normal.
Hi jvranjes! This is an example... I find that the text in the caption is just too large! Tried to find an option in Google Fonts plugin, but there is no option for captions only. Thanks for your help!
I see, these things are most likely defined in Appearance, Editor, Styles. But I suspect changing it would be pointless because with the next theme update you will probably have the same style options again. So it would be necessary to use it as a child theme, I am not much familiar with this.
So in this particular case, make the sentence shorter at least; remove the word Image, and of, and perhaps make the image bigger. This will change the visual ratio between the text and the image, and perhaps courtesy will fit in one line. Sorry, cannot suggest more. Jovo
Hi Jovo! Just wanted to leave the solution I found here so anybody could make use of it if they need... Go to "Appearance", then "Editor". Select the "style.css" code. Search for where the captions are being customized (you can use Ctrl F then look for "caption"). Inside the classes:
.wp-caption { ... }
.wp-caption-text { ... }
include
font-size: 10px;
using the size you want then save it. I also got rid of the borders. For example, this is how my classes look right now:
.wp-caption {
font-size: 10px;
border: 0px solid #ccc;
margin-bottom: 15px;
margin-bottom: 1.5rem;
max-width: 100%;
}
.wp-caption-text {
font-size: 10px;
text-align: center;
}
Michelle, thanks. I suggest you to write a blog and post it at WA, in this way it will be seen by more people and it will be appreciated.
In the end it was a peace of cake for a girl with a PhD in exact sciences.
As I mentioned earlier, I am not sure this will remain when the theme is updated, and sooner or later it will be.

Thanks, Jovo! That's a good idea! I will do it as soon as I can. I'm also going to look into how to do it in a child theme.
Have a great day!
