# Variable inserting variable name rather than replacing content

 * I had to deactivate the plugin due to bugginess. While the default SiteName and
   PageTitle variables work, other variables do not.
 * For example, let’s say I’ve defined content for ImageAlt and use that variable
   to force the HTML to include that information, rather than inserting the content
   I’ve defined for that image’s alt text the plugin overwrites with just “imagealt”.
   Same thing happens with the variable ImageName. It inserts “imagename” rather
   than the content that’s specified.
 * So, rather than helping with SEO, the plugin (with these existing bugs) does 
   more harm than good. As a result I had to turn it off.
 * If this gets fixed, I’ll definitely reconsider.

 * Hello [@larsenja](https://wordpress.org/support/users/larsenja/)
 * The plugin doesn’t even have the code or functionality to do the described bug,
   it only place the text as its written without any change.
 *  Please check your plugins or theme functionality.
