Hi,

Can you explain further what you mean exactly and provide some examples?
Thanks

for each picture, i can specify a title tag and it should look like this:<img src=“image.jpg” alt=“image description” title=“image tooltip”> – i need that tag for seo and pinterest optimization.
i found something in the function.js

SWIFT.reloadFunctions = {
		init:function() {

			// Remove title attributes from images to avoid showing on hover
			jQuery('img[title]').each(function() {
				 jQuery(this).removeAttr('title');
			});

but i don’t want to mess up code which i have to restore with every update (by the way, i don’t have any programming knowlegde ;))

ok. Thanks.

This probably is done by a specific reason. Let me forward this to the development team to see what they have to say.

Hi @zweimalB

That JS code removes the tag on load so that they aren’t shown when hovering over the image. The code is still there in the source, and should be readable by sites such as pinterest and SEO. Are you saying that this isn’t visible in those sites?

Hi Ed,
when i look into the code i.e. with firefox firebug inspector, then there are no title tags.
i attached 3 screenshots:
1. Code example with firebug with two pics
2. Mediathek Picture 1 tag info
3. Mediathek Pic 2 tag info

btw. same in chrome…

Hi @zweimalB

As I said – this is removed on document load. If you check the source of the page, you should see the title tags there as expected. The inspector tools in browsers are live versions of the source, hence why you can’t see them there. Ultimately, the title tags are still there, but not visible when you hove an image, for aesthetic purposes.
