Duplicate ALT in image gallery was created by lipatovroman

Hi!
When we don't use ALT in image gallery field

all images have same ALT = Item Title.

It's bad for Google.

Yes, we can fill all ALT's for each image, but what if each item have 15-20 images?

I have edited file /plugins/flexicontent_fields/image/image.php

I added

Code:

$counter++;

at line 1959,

and added this counter to this code

Code:

case 'display': default:
					$img_legend   = '<img src="'.JURI::root(true).'/'.$src.'" alt="'.$alt.' - image '.$counter.'"'.$legend.' class="'.$class.'" itemprop="image"/>';
					$img_nolegend = '<img src="'.JURI::root(true).'/'.$src.'" alt="'.$alt.' - image '.$counter.'" class="'.$class.'" itemprop="image"/>';
					break;
			}

So, now images have different ATL's, like this:

BMW Sedan image 1
BMW Sedan image 2
BMW Sedan image 3

I know, that image field does not have template for replacing, so this changes will lost after update.

So, I think we should have one more parameters for automatic ALT:

Use Item title? Yes/No
Add Prefix
Add Suffix
Add Counter Yes/No
Counter Before/After

Thanks.

Hello

added what you suggest without parameters

Code:

$alt_image_prefix. ' ' . JText::_('FLEXI_IMAGE') . ' ' . ($n+1);

There has been work to move rendering in layout files
but can not do this now (v3.2.0) as explained in other answer ...
