Change Mouseover Text on Thumbnails

[Greg HWD]

Hi,

How can I change the mouseover text on the thumbnails please ?

Currently it shows the Image Title...

Id like to have it display the same text for ALL images... eg: "Click Image to Enlarge"

Amazingly, some people do not realise that you need to click image to see the large version.

Here is an image of what I mean...

Jan, Could you reply to this please ? The post is drifting down the list with so many views but no replies....

Ive been searching and found this post viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2349 which talks about the use of the descriptions, descriptions and titles for alt tags ( as set in parameters) and I considered using this as a workaround by adding neta description for all images "Click To Enlarge" but it doesnt work, even if it did, I would have to enter the meta description for all images (and there are many!) SEO on images is not important, so the issues with that arent a problem and I could run a sql query to enter that as the meta description for all images...too much !!1

Ideally, Id like to find a way to make all alt tags on all images to have the alt text, "Click To Enlarge"

Jan, I would be happy to make another small donation (Ive made a few now) if you can help me achive this..

thanks

Hi, this can be a problem. Because all this depends on many factors, e.g.:

- on used javascript popup methods (some needs alt tag for title or description displayed in their features)
- on if e.g. overlib will be used or not (overlib can then be in conflict with displaying alt)

Mostly alt value can be defined in the parameters - see Alt Value parameter.

At least, this file should be modified, to fit exactly your needs:
components/com_phocagallery/views/category/tmpl/default_images.php

Just find the alt tag and paste there what is needed for your site.
