   If I summarize

   – **Image Alt Text:**
   – Descriptive tag for accessibility and SEO.
   – Vital for screen readers and SEO understanding.
   – Essential for accessibility compliance.

   – **Image Title:**
   – Tooltip text on image hover, offering extra information.
   – Provides supplementary context but less critical for accessibility.
   – Contributes to user experience and SEO, offering additional context for sighted users.

   When I taught images to my students while taking html and css classes, most student had confusion why we use both and what’s the difference between the too.
   I have used alt text in WordPress images but was not aware or never focused if I can also put the title text inside the wordpress images as well. This is very easy infact in the media gallery to write the title and the alt text both. it helps in search engines optimisation as well.

   My question is that if I delete the image from my article and upload another image on the same alt tag, will it cause any error.

     Unless we hear otherwise, it should not cause an issue.

   when you store a image, is the name of the image alt text?

   When adding a Title to the media files, it makes it searchable on the WP website. Can that be eliminated so images and files are not being pulled as a search result? Is there another way other than leaving the Title field blank?

     Most SEO plugins should have the option to disable indexing or you can use your robots.txt to disallow indexing.

   Should the alt text end with .jpeg extension while editing wordpress. Please help

   • WPBeginner Support

     No, you don’t need to add a file extension in your alt text.

   Hi: I was wondering if I should have dashes in between the words in my image title. i.e. (yellow-gold-round-earring). I was sure I saw that somewhere, but it doesn’t seem you use that method. Any help would be much appreciated.
   Thank you!

   返信

   • WPBeginner Support

     For image names, it’s important not to have a space in the file name, whether you remove the spaces or replace them with dashes is personal preference.

     If you have any caching on your site then you may want to clear your cache to see if that allows toe alt text to be added properly.

   Is there a way to display the image title like the caption?
   been googling all day, not kidding.

   返信

   • WPBeginner Support

     That would depend on your theme for the styling of your images and if they display the image title the same way they do the image caption.

    Does using site-builders (I use Elementor) or plugins like W3 Total Cache prevent the adding of Image Title and Alt Text attributes?
    Can you add the attributes to Background Images?

    I’m asking because my Home page uses a Background Image as its hero just below the site header. But I cannot find a spot in WP classic editor or dashboard to add both attributes.

    In fact, if I search the source-code for the page, I do not see my image upload path & filename listed anywhere in the 915 lines of code.

    Can you advise?
    Thanks.

      Those should not prevent image titles and alt text, you should be able to go to your media library and edit the attributes from there as long as it is not a default image from the theme if you can’t edit it where you’ve set it. If it is from the default theme you would want to reach out to the theme’s support and they should be able to let you know where to find the image.

    FYI – With Gutenberg it is impossible to add the Image Title Attribute (title=”example”). You cannot access the field like in Classic and you cannot add it with html (it will give a message to resolve an error).

    Can you help me find either a plugin, or the necessary code to allow me to have a gallery that shows one picture at a time, with fwd/bkwd buttons, the image title, image description and the alt-text when you hover?

    I’m going mad unable to fathom why every gallery plugin I try seems to be determined to undo Wordpress’s good work of having those as separate fields and forcing you to have a single title/alt field! Infuriating when you’re trying to make a more accessible website by using alt-text properly, but still want to be able to use a separate title >.<

    Hi, once the image is uploaded in media file, changing the titles of the image later will it lead to broken images?

    返信

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Amit,

      No. You can change title of an image without breaking it by doing that from WordPress media library.

    Would you ever suggest using the same words in the title and alt text?

      Yes, you can use the same text in both title and alt fields.

    This really helped me understand the two, and why I should include keywords in the alt text. Thank you!

    Does it matter for SEO or for searching the images what the alt text is. For example: a photo of a hammer and nails, should it be Acme Co. Hammer and Nails if my company is Acme, or just simply Hammer and Nails. My photos are specific to my service company not stock art.

      I am a long time fan of WPBeginner. You have all the answers I usually need. I’d just like to add one suggestion. The videos move too fast for me to get, and skip some of the most elementary steps in the process. For example, in this one the narrator skipped the two step process you need to go through to get to the image in the library. Step One – Go to Media. Step Two – Open Library. Simple, but for old guys like me, not so easy to follow because I wouldn’t be listening if I already knew the basics like you do. Thanks for listening.

    Hello, thank you for this very useful and informative article.
    I didn’t know that Image Title is not the same as Title in the Media Library. You are showing here how to change that for blog posts, which is very useful.

    But I have a question: What about products in WooCommerce? For product image and product gallery, I cannot find the “Image Details” menu, where the Image Title can be added. Would you be able to help with this?

    Interesting Article about Image Attributes in Wordpress. I was not knowing that putting title in Insert Media will not set image title attribute. Thanks for the Info.

    I thought I should be more specific: the actual text in the Yoast SEO is: “The images on this page are missing alt tags.”
    I’m not sure what the difference is between alt text and an alt tag……

    返信

    • Edward

      Alt is an attribute of the img tag and therefore isn’t a tag itself, however is often referred to as such. The alt text is the value given to the alt attribute, for example: . The tag is img, the attribute is alt and it’s value is alternative text.

    Hello,

    I’m no website guru and am bumbling my way through the building of my internet site.

    I’m using Themify and prefer the gallery images option for aesthetic reasons. However, I have put titles, caption, descriptions and alt texts onto all of my images, but my Yoast SEO always tells me I have no alt text attached to my images….Is that because I’m using the gallery option? Is there a way to fix this?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    返信

    • WPBeginner Support

      preview your page containing the gallery. Right click on an image and then select Inspect from browser menu. In the developer tools you will see HTML tag used to display the image. See if it has alt attribute in the image tag. If it does, then you can ignore Yoast SEO’s warning. You may also ask your theme author for support.

    Another question. Now if I add an image title it causes a the title to show if you hover over the image. That’s not the end of the world but I didn’t necessarily want the title popping up by hovering over the image. But, since you said its a good idea for Google purposes I am inclined to put titles. My images are nothing more than decor for my site.

    返信

28. Bobby

    I am relatively new to the world of WP and I believe you addressed the question above. So how do I edit an image I am going to use as a background? If the image is not on a page I don’t have the edit feature available. So I need to go to the editor and find the location of the image? If so where do I find it because I didn’t see anything titled images?

    Please advise, thanks.

    I have spent some time updating the title and alt fields for the images used on my website, but when I view the source code only the title attribute has been updated. The alt attribute is still empty. Why is this and how can I fix it?

    Actually the title attribute should be avoided. Also, i know (lost the url) there is/was a discussion on the WordPress Trac about getting rid of the title attribute field by default in WordPress. More info: https://www.webaccessibility.com/best_practices.php?best_practice_id=2053

    返信

    • Yaroslav Nikitenko

      “Actually the title attribute should be avoided” – no, this is wrong. In the link you’ve supplied it’s written that one should not rely exclusively on titles, because they may not be displayed by some devices. But using titles makes no harm.

      返信

      • Bobby

        I did a check of a few other sites and almost none use image titles? is it really needed? Does it really help Google and other search engines? And the title popping up when you hover over the image sort of annoys me.

    Would be nice to have an explanation of the “Description” field also. My understanding is this has nothing to do with SEO. Is this only for identification purposes for the user? Or some other reason?

    返信

    • Reup

      There’s no SEO downside as long as the text you’re using is related to the image.

      This should help.

      Description: A longer image description. Often displayed when you use a thumbnail to link to a larger image.

    Interesting also to note that when you add an image as a line of code with the appropriate link in text mode – rather than using the media library – then go to visual, then back to text, the alt text line is added to your entered code automatically.

    Perhaps in a future version of WordPress the title text will be added automatically and ready to be filled in too?
