Over ride auto-generated alt tag on image added via Rich Text field

Question

When I add an image via a rich text (doing as port of a flexi layout approach) somehow an alt tag gets auto output, e.g:

alt="sketch2.jpg#asset:308

I wondered if there is a way to over ride or edit the HTML via the rich text field for the auto generated alt tag?

Just click the Rich Text field's HTML button and change it to whatever you want? — Brad Bell, Dec 21 '16 at 22:03

The Retcon plugin works great for DOM manipulation. You can override the attribute with a default value or remove it completely.

{{ entry.body|retconAttr('img', {'alt': entry.title}) }}

{{ entry.body|retconAttr('img', {'alt': false}) }}

Assuming you've got the "source" plugin defined in your craft/config/redactor/myconfig.json Redactor config for that Rich Text field's settings, you can click on the "HTML" button and edit the alt tag manually to whatever you wish.
