 * Hi
    It’d be great if the plugin included the ability to specify ‘alt’/’title’
   tags for each image. I’ve actually modified the plugin myself to add this ability.
   Let me know if you’d like the code, it’d be great if it was included in updates
   to the plugin. Cheers Matt

 * Hello Matt,
 * I found this deficiency also regarding the missing alt tabs. Could you send me
   your code? I am a relative newbie to Word Press. Will I be able to upload it 
   as a plugin and install?
 * Thank you.

 * This is definitely a “need” for this plugin. When I view the source code, it 
   shows empty alt tags but there is no way in the plugin to state an alt tag for
   each of the images. Very confusing.
 * I’d love to know how you modified the plugin for this as well. Thanks!

 * Hi guys
    I’d be please to send it to you. I was planning on syncing the changes
   from the latest version of the plugin before sending it to you though. If you
   need it urgently I can send it straight away. I was hoping to hear from the author
   of the plugin so that the changes could be incorporated, as otherwise any future
   updates to the plugin will overwrite the changes (unless the update includes 
   my changes or similar ones). Cheers Matt UltraWebsites.com

 * Hi
 * I’ve now synced the changes from the latest version of the plugin, and emailed
   it to you Bob.
 * I’ve also contact Nathan about the updates to see if he wants the changes with
   a view to including it in the plugin, and am waiting to hear back.
 * hazeleyes7, if you’d like it, please contact me via my website UltraWebsites.
   com (I don’t want to paste my email here).
 * Cheers

 * No worries Bob 🙂
 * Hey Nathan, if you’re reading this, you should mention somewhere in the plugin
   and/or the FAQs that the plugin requires the theme to use the wp_footer hook.
 * Cheers

 * So, I’m not alone!!! I’ve been trying to figure out a way of adding alt text 
   to my images with this plugin but with no joy.
    Matt, I will contact you through
   your site for the code if that’s ok…

 * I’ve posted the code for the [WP-Cycle Plugin with alt tags](http://www.derekwatterson.com/jquery-wp-cycle-with-alt-tags).
   Thanks to Matt of ultrawebsites.com for adding fields to add the alt tags. I 
   also modified it to set the title to be the same as the alt tags.

 * **[@ultrawebsites](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ultrawebsites/)**, thanks
   very much for doing this – much needed 🙂
 * **[@ddubbua](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ddubbua/)** – brilliant that
   you’ve taken the changes & created an alternative version of the plugin, thanks
   too
 * **To Nathan** : you have a great plugin, which I am just using for the first 
   time – if “alt tags” can be included as standard that would be awesome!
 * thanks!
