Hello HivePress Community,
I’ve encountered an issue while trying to edit the alt text for images. It appears that the alt text is automatically populated with the page title, which isn’t ideal for my needs. Additionally, the meta descriptions for listings are being auto-generated using the category name and attributes. Even after applying SEO plugins, these remain unchanged.
Has anyone found a solution to customize the alt text and meta descriptions manually?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi,
Yes, alt is written in the code, and it can be changed using the code by overwriting the child theme template part: How to override template parts - HivePress Help Center. Also, if you mean to show alt tags that are specified in media, thank you for the feedback, we will consider adding this functionality.
As for meta, HivePress uses an excerpt to generate indexable things like attributes (or category, vendor name), which are then used to search the site. Most likely, your SEO plugin uses an excerpt as a meta description. Please check the SEO plugin settings and see if you can change them so that the meta description is applied first for the content, not the excerpt.
