Title: Product Image description changes and shows meta-tags
Post by: BeMo on March 25, 2015, 13:25:22 PM

The first load of the product page gives the main image the "The image description" text.
Start clicking the thumbnails, the text change to show the "Meta tags" text.

In VM2 I changed this line (somewhere around line 570 - depending on your VM version) in \administrator\components\com_virtuemart\helpers\mediahandler.php
from
if ($file_alt ) $file_alt = 'title="'.$file_alt.'"';
to
if ($file_alt ) $file_alt = 'title="'.$withDesc.'"';

But in VM3 this only works for the first image and it breaks the display of the image title for the additional images completely. At present I don't know a solution for this either.
