Comment (by vvt10551):

 Hello @dd32,

 Thank you for your prompt response. Hopefully additional examples in
 response will provide the necessary adjustments.

 From what I can understand, you're suggesting that the display of various
 post formats should be in a different format than you're currently
 experiencing? That is correct, mainly to have the paragraph text show
 first even if image caption is first, particularly standard post format.

 Are you referring to the Editor interface? Editor interface.

 The themes suggest either theme formats, or plugins being the issue,
 however, upon having no plugins or themes, this seems to be an issue with
 the WP core format.

 I.e.:

 As you can see here: https://prnt.sc/Utzricx2ViZw of

 post.
 Debt 101 post: https://prnt.sc/FObdJn7K0RIC (https://prnt.sc/-VE1oix6SqCF
 - this is image caption in post) Debt 101 post has WordPress Gutenberg
 image block with caption "click here..." (no plugins pertaining to post)

 This is the same issue with image blocks and button blocks of plugins:

 The button text (any text) in this case "Collect", is showing in the
 excerpts when the first image is used in posts. Homepage
 (https://vitalytennant.com/) content slider [https://prnt.sc/QJz8fosZEIrQ]
 and content (https://vitalytennant.com/content/) page slider
 [https://prnt.sc/3mS8XB88i9SU], as well as the widget (if posts are
 trending with Collect as first image) on every article
 [https://prnt.sc/zUmhcF6qiONo]. Image captions may show up in RSS feeds,
 although button text definitely shows up in RSS feeds.

 Thank you.

 Best regards.
