Images Alt Tags

Hi, i am trying to better my SEO score and i was wondering is there is a way to insert one general alt tag that could apply to all uploaded images on hikashop. Like maybe my websites's name?

Hello,

If you want to have a better SEO score :

1. You have to set the alt value of your image to the name of your product, so you'll have to name every product's images as your product in you product page(the alt value will be the name of your product's image).

2. In the next release of Hikashop you'll have the "Hikashop productTag" plugin, wich will allow you to have a better SEO score and a better "schema" for your product page (You can have a look at this if you want more information about schemas).

Hi there,

On my shop I have various W3C errors, some include the following below. Are these known errors and is this something I can amend or not?


Line 330, Column 462: "itemscope" is not a member of a group specified for any attribute
…" class="hikashop_product_page" itemscope itemtype=" schema.org/Product ">

Line 330, Column 471: there is no attribute "itemtype"
…" class="hikashop_product_page" itemscope itemtype=" schema.org/Product ">

Line 353, Column 16: there is no attribute "itemprop"
<div itemprop="offers" itemscope itemtype=" schema.org/Offer "><span id="…

Line 353, Column 35: "itemscope" is not a member of a group specified for any attribute
<div itemprop="offers" itemscope itemtype=" schema.org/Offer "><span id="…

Hi,

This error is coming from the fact they are specification for HTML5, so you have 3 choice :

1. Use an HTML5 template
2. Keep this error which are not that important
3. Don't use this plugin.

Hope this will help you .

Hi Mohamed,

When you say 'dont use this plugin', are you talkign about Hikashop in general?
Or are these errors as a result of a specific plugin which I can disable? If so, which plugin is this??

Thanks Nicolas,

Sorry if this is a silly question, but what is the specific name of this plugin?
I have searched for the plugin using the word 'schema' but this plugin is obviously called something else.

If you can let me know the plugin name, I can see if I can disable it without causing any issues.

Thanks once again

Many thanks Nicolas.
Can I ask your advise - If I do not have an html5 template, would I be better just disabling this plugin so I can have an error free page?

I already have the same information which is in the shop, on other pages on my websites (in my Joomla articles).
