First off, I want to say thank you for taking the time to even read this, I really do appreciate the help this site and it’s community has given me thus far.

i have looked forever to be able to find a way to append (display inside an added div) some image meta data just below EVERY image in EVERY single post. I have found some stuff for NextGen Gallery and some other things, but that is way too much bloat, I just want to attach a div and a couple spans, with a little php thrown in there!

I am building a fairly huge magazine style website, and a lot of the images will need to be accredited to photographers who don’t directly work for the site.

I have been searching for a way to do this via php, not js. I like the plugin Media Custom Fields it lets me add a couple extra lines of meta to every media file, which is perfect. I don’t need any help with pulling that meta out and displaying it once I know how to append something to every image.

Meaning that, after someone can help me find out how to add stuff to all the images, i should be able to take it from there!

I know that this code does not work or make sense, but maybe some of you can figure out exactly what I need from this example, I hope! :

    add_filter('image', 'add_stuff',);
    function add_stuff($image_meta) 
        {
            $image_meta = '';

            $author_name = get_post_meta($post->ID, "tamcf_author_name", TRUE );
            $author_website = get_post_meta($post->ID, "tamcf_author_website", TRUE);

                if (is_single() && (is_image())
                    {
                    foreach( $images as $image ) 
                        {
                        $image_meta .= '<div class="extra_image_meta"><span>' . $author_name . '</span><span>' . $author_website . '</span></div>';
                        }
                    } 
            $image .= $image_meta
            return $image
        }

That is pretty much what I need to happen, if you all can understand that!
