the ALT attribute in empty in Product detail page VM3

[heslikk]

Hi,
In the category page, the thumbnail images have an ALT attribute in source view. However, the ALT attribute in empty in Product detail page.

Could you please suggest what change is required, so that ALT attribute has values in Product detail page. This will help in SEO. Version J2.5+VM3.

what I do - in file components/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/products.php after

Code Select Expand

foreach ( $products as $product ) { add

Code Select Expand

if (!empty($product->images[0])) {
if ( empty( $product->images[0]->file_meta ) ) {
  $product->images[0]->file_meta = htmlspecialchars($product->product_name);
}
} but this not working..

Sorry for bad English.
Thanks.

Version J2.5+VM3.

See http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=128401.0

In latest VM versions with default templates the image alt is populated on the product details page. For example see  http://demo.virtuemart.net/cowboy-hat-detail

Then updating may fix your problem, but test on a copy of your site, as you don't say if you are using template overrides or default VM templates.
