unwanted caption if entry includes text and media is hosted by Flickr

When generating a timeline from a Google Sheet, if you include Text but leave the Media Caption empty, and if Media is a link to an image hosted on Flickr, then the value of the Text will appear as a caption under the image in the timeline. This does not happen if the image is hosted somewhere else.

The only way I see to work around this without a coding change is to do one of the following:

  • always include a value for Media Caption
  • don't point to images hosted on Flickr
  • make the value of Media Caption " " (though this shows as a title tooltip when mousing over the image, unfortunately)
