I can't insert bold words in my caption

  • Help! I can’t insert a bold word in the caption image.

    If I use the < strong > tag in the HTML code of a post or page, I see the bold in the caption.
    But, when I return on the post or page and save it again, the < strong > tag disappear. So I have no bold in my caption!!!

    Can you help me.
    My WordPress version is 3.1.1

    Are you entering the strong tags in the Visible or the HTML editor of the post/page?

    Also (just to eliminate the issue) the tags shouldn’t have any spaces, so:

    <strong> and then </strong>.

    Maybe test with another html styling to see if that disappears also, for example <span>

    I’m sure I read a post a while back that you cannot format caption text with WordPress, whether that’s changed or not is anyone’s guess.

    I use the tag <strong> without space but it disappears. How I can use <span>?

    Use it just like the strong tag:

    <span>Some text</span>
