I have the image description in all four places: title, caption, alt and description. And still, I can't get an alt tag on my logo.</p> <p>Guys, this is very important. Huge. I'm the SEO guy and I can't explain to my boss why the alt tag isn't showing up. I copied the php that I found here and made the changes.

ADD ANY NUMBER OF IMAGES YOU LIKE BELOW--&gt;</code></pre> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/add-alt-tags-to-rotating-images-in-header-and-main-page-sub-pages#post-29120 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 05:56:56 +0000 karlvonkries 29120@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Greetings Kriesi and Forum -</p> <p>We're using Cubit @ <a href="http://www.lightmanufacturingllc.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.lightmanufacturingllc.com</a> (love it), but would like to add some relevant Alt-tags to the slider images and/or the main-pags sub-pages. Because so much of the main page for the theme is 'assembled' by the background PHP, it's a little harder for the user to add the alt tags.</p> <p>What's the best place to add the alt-tag code in the Theme Editor?<br /> I don't want to break anything by mistake..</p> <p>Many thanks! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alt-tag-in-cu3er-and-portfolion#post-27702 Sat, 24 Sep 2011 10:14:22 +0000 Dude 27702@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Glad that everything works now :) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alt-tag-in-cu3er-and-portfolion#post-27621 Fri, 23 Sep 2011 08:55:38 +0000 ancientgeek 27621@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Supa Dupa, thanks dude.</p> <p>Well, that's how you learn isn't it?

The 'Alternate Text' is useless (at least for our theme). </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alt-tag-in-cu3er-and-portfolion#post-27552 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 16:11:12 +0000 ancientgeek 27552@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thanks Dude,<br /> I have just double checked, something seemed wrong - it may be me.</p> <p>On my gallery page (the portfolio) only one of the slide images was showing an alt tag, but on closer inspection it seems to be the wrong alt tag.<br /> After investigation it seems the alt tag used is actually the 'Description' field in the media library and not the 'Alternate Text' field which is being ignored.<br /> Is that just me? I presumed the 'Alternate Text' was the alt tag but it's actually the description field which is used.<br /> So this may be a false alarm.</p> <p>If so, what is the 'Alternate Text' field used for?</p> <p>thanks </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alt-tag-in-cu3er-and-portfolion#post-27544 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 12:56:56 +0000 Dude 27544@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I see no reason why the slider images have no alt tag - it seems like the "avia_image_by_id" function in framework\php\function-set-avia-frontend.php and image title/description are set based on the thumbnail/attachment id. I'll ask Kriesi to look into it. Maybe we've found a bug here. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alt-tag-in-cu3er-and-portfolion#post-27541 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 11:44:34 +0000 ancientgeek 27541@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,<br /> I don't know what you mean by "did you check if "Caption Title", etc. are set for all slider images".</p> <p>As I said, I have entries in Caption Titles as well as alt tags. I'm not aware of any tick boxes that need ticking.<br /> The alt tags appear (in view source) for the same images on portfolio entries but not on the home page.</p> <p>Just to clarify that, I have images in porfolio entries appearing in the slider - on view source the alt tags are showing up.<br /> Using the same images, picked from the media library, but this time on the slider on the home page, the alt tags are showing up as empty on the view source.</p> <p>This is taking a few points off my SEO efforts.</p> <p>thanks. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alt-tag-in-cu3er-and-portfolion#post-27335 Mon, 19 Sep 2011 20:30:06 +0000 Dude 27335@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,<br /> the alt tag is set for some entries and for some not - did you check if "Caption Title", etc. are set for all slider images? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alt-tag-in-cu3er-and-portfolion#post-27312 Mon, 19 Sep 2011 10:15:40 +0000 ancientgeek 27312@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I didn't quite understand the original question here but it sounds like the problem I have.<br /> I am using broadscope 2.0 and have just set up a new site.
