Markdown Support for Image Caption

Is there markdown support for adding image captions?

I know I can add a title tag using this syntax:

![alt](http:// "Title")

But I don’t want to write my entire blog post in markdown and then have to piece it together using the Koenig editor.

Proposed syntax if not currently available:

  1. ![alt](http:// "Title" "Caption")
  2. ![alt](http:// "Title" )[^Caption] which would follow similar pattern of adding footnotes.

No. Markdown does not support image captions. We adhere to the commonmark spec so that the markdown syntax is compatible across a wide variety of editors.

If you need to create images with captions inside of a markdown card then you will need to enter the necessary html directly.
