 Hello,

 The proposal of Standard posts format currently shows captions in
 excerpts, (if) image is first with caption (then) the caption is displayed
 in excerpts. The proposal needs to have paragraph text show in the
 excerpts first, not the image caption as it is recognized as
 text/paragraph. In addition, button text shows first if it is first in the
 format, as this text is rendered similar as image caption. In the standard
 post format, the paragraph text should always show first (regardless if
 image is first). If image or gallery format is chosen, it would be
 applicable to show the captions first, although, that may be decided also,
 for paragraph text to be first possibly. Screenshot reference:

 Thank you.

 Best regards.
