Hi all, Sue.

Is there anyway to have alt=”{filename}” replaced by alt=”{topic_title}” in a photo attachment to a forum thread?

Thank you.

ps. I am using the latest version of EE and EE-Forum

In ‘Thread View’- ‘Image Attachments’- what do you get when you edit to match the above?

just {topic_title}

Looks like it’s not parsed in that template.  MIGHT could do it with php parsed on output- but I’m not dead sure how the parsing works there.  And I imagine you might run into more trouble than it’s worth.  If you want me to break this off to ‘How to’ and give you some php suggestions, I can.  Might be simple.  Or it might not.

Yeah sure. Thanx.

Done- and… we can give this a try.  Turn php parsing on, parsed on output- in the thread view, let’s set a variable based on the topic title

<?php
$ttitle = '{topic_title}';
?>

Then in the image attachment template, let’s just see if it works

<?php
echo 'Topic title: '.$ttitle;
?>

May/may not.

I will try it asap.

Sorry, not parsing…
