HTML Code Error in Title Attribute Output

    Testing your SEO plugin and the output has a major HTML error in the title= output.

    Where the title is added between img and src in the code, it lacks a space. The output is

    img title = "phrase here"src

    should be

    img title = "phrase here" src

    There’s a space missing. Also don’t like the spaces around the = signs 🙂

    Also you are adding the filename as the alt text, this may or may not have SEO value, depends on the filename.

    If we have a file with name randomfhfggfjjfhg.jpg we do not want alt text “randomfhfggfjjfhg”. It’s why other similar plugins use the post title.

    Also found errors on the settings page. Where you’ve disabled features (by breaking the code) that are in the Pro version it results in PHP errors. Test your plugin with this in your wp-config.php file to see the issue:

    define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);

    Hi David

    Including filename in alt and title tags is not mandatory, if you din’t want to show filename in alt and title tags than do not add the name directive in the respective fields. We had developed this feature on user’s request.

    Regarding spacing and errors, since this forum cannot be used for premium plugin support kindly get in touch over our email at themes[at]webriti[dot]com along with the email id you used during the time of purchase and the version on which you are getting these errors. Because the spacing issue is already fixed in the latest version of premium packages , so, kindly share the plugin version.

    Kindly get in touch on our email.

    Thanks

    I was testing the free version to see what it does/how it works, your plugin isn’t what I’m looking for (too many code problems, not the right features).

    Just giving you a friendly heads up of code problems for you to fix for your users. Had I planned to use the plugin I’d fix them myself. The space issue for example is a simple case of adding a few spaces in the code.

    In Version: 1.6.1
    Edit file:
    seo-optimized-images.php

    lines 76 and 117 change to

    $t_title = 'title = "'.$title_text.'" ';

    If like me you don’t like the space before and after the = signs change to

    $t_title = 'title="'.$title_text.'" ';

    I’d do the same with the “alt = ” output as well. I’d want all the alt code to be “alt=”.
