    Having problems with title tags for images. I’ve titled all my images using this plugin but when I run a site auditor with RavenTools, it’s showing as all titles are empty. The theme is Divi and I have all their SEO options turned off.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello ??

    I interpret your question in two manners. So, let’s get to both of them.

    1: Attachment pages
    Is the report about the attachment pages, like example.com/img_raccoon_family?
    I performed a manual inspection, and the page titles show up perfectly.

    Aside from that, attachment pages shouldn’t be indexed — they’re low-quality, low-density, and low-context content and can bring your whole site down in ranking.

    I see that all attachment pages are blocked from indexing, this is good because of the reason above.

    I suggest activating the free Origin extension for extra conformity.

    If the report from RavenTools was about this, then it’s a false-positive.

    2: Inline images
    If your querying about the inline image titles, then I’m afraid this is a WordPress issue. The Attachment SEO settings do not affect the embedded attachment titles; they only affect the attachment pages.

    You can set titles by clicking on an image in the Media Library; you’ll find the field on the right-hand side.
    Then, to resolve this, you need to reinsert the images on each applicable page.

    Alternatively, you can go by every <img.. /> tag inserted on your pages via the “Text editor”, and insert alt tags manually.

    Both routes are very time consuming, and I advise not to take them for the sake of your sanity.

    To conclude
    This isn’t a big issue. Nowadays, Google parses (most) images via their image interpretation algorithms.
    This is much like Facebook’s DeepMask does for your Facebook photos (“like” a baby photo today and you’ll only see babies on Facebook tomorrow). So, your images are categorized automatically.

    For example: if you right-click on one of your images in Google Chrome, and select “Search Google for Image”, Google will likely tell you the name of the pest, or at least the category.

    Thank you for your reply. I did have the origin extension already enabled when it was looked at.

    Thanks a bunch for the explanation.
