How to remove title attribute from wp_list_pages()

well, I hate useless tooltips on links too, so I kind of understand – but I think this would be something that requires hacking core code, and I don’t really advocate that for something this trivial, as it will need to be redone for each upgrade.

It’s in wp-includes/classes.php if you (your client) still want it.

Find
<a href="' . get_page_link($page->ID) . '" title="' . attribute_escape(apply_filters('the_title', $page->post_title)) . '">'

Nice one Haochi.

If I were to set up a custom field (called, say: “label”) how would I edit the code above to show the “value” of that field as a tooltip?

No need to hack core code… here is a solution I came up with:
