 * I need to make changes to my website because of new rules for accessibility for
   visually handicaps users. For there tet readers it is necessary to make the images
   in the post gallery decorative.
 * Every image now has an alt text that is equal to the post title. This should 
   be removed.
 * Can anyone help me with that?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Faccessibility-question%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi,
 * Since there’s no filter for this particularly, you’ll have to edit the plugin’s`
   functions.php` and go to Line 191 to remove the `alt="<?php esc_attr( the_title());?
   >"` part.

 * No problem. 🙂
 * Reminder: You have to do this every time the plugin updates as this change will
   be overwritten by it.
