When I select any other option (Article, Contact, Field, Menu, or Module), the correct modal pops up. But when I select Media, a modal of the Administrator home page pops up instead of the Media dialog.

The reason I wanted to access Media this way is because there are attributes I want to add in the selection dialog (figcaption), but those attributes are not available because the Media dialog isn't loading.

I tested with Joomla's default editor and it worked as expected - when I select an image from the modal window, the attributes dialog appears and I can specify what I want for the image to use in the article.

Brian Teeman provided instructions on how it is supposed to work: https://app.tango.us/app/workflow/Figcaption-for-image-credits-etc-b2763cb04fd5493ea5d3c138cc8d3480

Thank you,

It looks like another change in Joomla 5 has broken the JCE implementation of this in the Joomla button. I am working on a fix for this for the next update but it is difficult.

Until then, it is possible to add a Figure and Figcaption to an image with JCE.

  1. Using the Image Manager or Image Manager Extended, select and insert the image.
  2. Select the image by clicking on it.
  3. Select Figure from the format list, then type in the caption. This will automatically create the <figcaption> tag inside the <figure> tag.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

Thanks for checking into this - I'll notify the forum thread.

Please try JCE Pro 2.9.70 RC3 - https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/downloads/editor/pro/development

Although I would still recommend the method I described above for adding Figure and Figcaption elements in JCE Pro.
