Add Alt Text to Linked Images by BOP5 (VB 4.1.10+)

Re-useable Code  
No support by the author.



Current Version: 1.5

This is the Standard Version. The GOLD Version is FREE but available only from:
Qapla.com - Add Alt Text GOLD VB4 by BOP5 Mod

The GOLD edition has 1 additional feature: Smart Tagging
Smart Tagging will check the filename of an image for useful information. If the mod believes the filename can be useful to describing the image it will use a cleaned and formatted version of the filename as the alt or title text. If the mod sees that the filename is all numeric, or a common digital camera format, or a vbulletin attachment filename it will instead use the thread title as the alt/title text for the image.

The Standard edition has only 3 options for alt or title text, each of which can be set independently. - Use Filename, Use Thread Title, or use both Filename AND Thread Title to create the tag.

The purpose of this mod is to automatically add "alt" and / or "title" tags to linked images in vBulletin forums.

By default vBulletin leaves the alt tag blank on all linked images. However image searches like Google scan for alt and/or title tags to determine what the image is and having these tags can increase your SEO in regards to images and perhaps regular SEO as well.

It can also benefit visually impaired users who may be using a screen reader.

Demo: http://www.qapla.com/mods/showthread...?p=325#post325

VB 4.1.10+ Preferred. No manual file edits necessary.
VB 4.0.0 - VB 4.1.9 - 1 manual file edit required. Directions in .zip.

Please Mark as Installed if you use this.

Perfect on vbulletin 4.2.2 but error when use mod "Word link by Bop5"
If i setting word link in admincp, on alt images will display error
Ex: If i write "i like this mod", it will display "i love this <a href="http://domain.com">mod</a>"
Can you fix it?

That's an issue with the other mod- I'll followup in the Word Links mod thread.

Please "Mark as Installed" though if you are using this mod.

Nice work Joe! Installed and testing.

One question - If you use the smart tag on both the title and alt txt will they both show the same thing? What do you recommend for this?

Thanks,
Rich

Hello,

Yes both would be the same in that case.

Personally I use filename for the alt and smart tag for the title. I don't know that there is any logic to this other than I would suspect the filename would be more useful to people who see the alt text than the thread title would be which may be the case if it was using the smart tag.

I was thinking the same thing.

This mod doesn't let you enter custom alt text- it generates alt text based on the filename of the image or title of the thread depending on the setting you choose.

Hello- that is only possible for attached images (images you upload into vBulletin) whereas this mod only works on linked images (linked with the [img] bbcode.)
