Issue Summary
When multiple images with links and captions (titles) are inserted vertically (stacked) in a Confluence Cloud page, the captions disappear after updating the page.
This issue only occurs when each image has a link applied.
If images are inserted without links, captions remain visible as expected.
Internally, the affected images are converted to the inline-media-image format after saving, causing the captions to be lost.
This behavior is reproducible in both customer and internal environments.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open a Confluence Cloud page in the new editor.
- Insert two images vertically, one after another (no empty line between them).
- For each image, add a link (e.g., to another page or external URL).
- For each image, set a caption (title) using the "Add caption" field below the image.
- Publish or update the page.
- Observe the images on the published page.
Expected Results
- Both images should display their respective captions (titles) and links as set in the editor, regardless of their vertical placement.
Actual Results
- After publishing/updating, both images are converted to the inline-media-image format.
- The captions (titles) disappear and are not displayed below the images.
- This issue only occurs when images have links applied and are stacked vertically without separation.
- If images do not have links, or if an empty line is inserted between them, captions are displayed correctly.
Workaround
- Insert an empty line (press Enter) between each linked image when placing multiple images vertically.
This separation prevents the issue, and captions/titles are displayed as expected after updating the page.
- Alternatively, do not apply links to the images if captions must be preserved in a stacked layout.
