Yes, we are using “Members” which I’m sure you are familiar with. We have custom roles with custom permissions.

It is unfortunate that NextGEN doesn’t respect these custom roles and it always defaults to one of them in the “Other Options ? Roles & Capabilities”. So, every time we need to make any change to NextGEN options we have to reset these capabilities as it defaults to a specific role it decides to.

Before we used to be able to just select the lowest role in the “Roles & Capabilities” while saving the options, however, now we will have to set everything to “Administrator” then go into “Members” plugin and edit each single role and tweak the permissions from there as NextGEN overwrites that as well.

Would be awesome if NextGEN could play along with Members or at least remember the permissions and roles once setup.

Thank you!

Hi @tobiasbg,

I disabled the “TablePress Extension: Responsive Tables” plugin and that temporarily resolved it.

Then I tested what you suggested and that worked as well.

Thanks, you are the best bro!

For the users interested on this.

This has been officially released on NextGEN version 3.2.23.

I just updated mine and saw that.

I went to settings and changed the following options:

Single image title – from None to Image Alt Text

Gallery image title – from None to Image Alt Text

And now I can see the alt text content when I inspect the page.

I don’t think the plugin should affect the alt text attribute in this manner.

Thanks.

OK, I have found the culprit. It is this plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/responsive-lightbox/

It is somehow affecting the alt text attribute.

Thank you!

Ok, I just did a little troubleshooting and it seems like if you wrap <img> with an achor <a> like this <a href="#"><img scr="#" alt="test"></a> the alt text becomes empty, if you remove the anchor (link) the alt text works fine.

So, there’s something affecting the alt text tag when the img attribute is being wrapped with an anchor.

@skandha Yes, I have all the alt text already populated in the Media Library. Every single image on our website has alt text. I also made sure to check the source code in the WYSIWYG editor (Text) and I see the alt text there as well. However, when I inspect the page the alt text is empty.

Thanks.

Hi @skandha, here’s one of the pages: https://wppd.org/public-information/cold-cases/.

I did a little more digging and while inspecting the page you can’t see the alt text, viewing the page source code you can. That’s strange.
In some other pages while inspecting the code I can see the alt text but not this one. I doubled check the content and the alt text is populated in the back end as well.

Thank you!

We are on WP Engine.

Thank you!

Hello,

I’m also having an error thrown when trying to replace a media file. I get the following:

Error thrown

Class ‘EnableMediaReplace\WpeCommon’ not found

It seems your plugin is crashing with my hosting “WpeCommon” resource that lives in “/wp-content/mu-plugins/”. However, why is your plugin trying to access “/wp-content/mu-plugins/wpengine-common/”?

Thank you!

Hi @ovann86 thank you so much for addressing and releasing a fix for this issue! Much appreciated.

So far, what I have noticed is that the function now needs the ‘start_date’ attribute.

In my custom function I had:

'orderby'           => 'date',
'order'             => 'ASC',

I have replaced that with:

'start_date' => date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s' )

And it seems to be working. I had also to use the following:

date_default_timezone_set('America/New_York');

Having similar issues here with a custom function using “tribe_get_events” pulling the incorrect information!

What did change on this function that it breaking things now?

Hi @eskapism,

If you can we could do a remote session and you could troubleshoot what you need through that session.

Let me know, thanks.
