Warzone Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hello, now, in IPS4, when you upload a image, a jpg, jpeg, png, gif you will get imagename.jpg as title, is it possible to remove the .jpg/png/jpeg filetype from the title? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Yes, you are asked to supply the caption (which defaults to the filename) on the second step of the submit process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warzone Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 I know, but isn't it possible to remove the filetype automatically while the image are processed? Many just click on "Done" or finish and the name has: imagename.jpg - i hate that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexWebsites Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I really wish there was a setting to force users to create a title rather than having the image file name as default if they don't. I'm getting way too many non customized titles and its bad for SEO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexWebsites Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 The caption drives the page title on for each page with an image. First thing I did was change the language from "Caption" to 'Picture Title" to hopefully prompt members to not want their photo title to be a file name. However, I think that not having it automatically populate and having a setting where its required would be helpful to ensure page titles exist. Another would be a duplicate title check. If we want Gallery to be SEO, then these are just a couple of enhancements that are needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Woods Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 This behaviour is closer to a file manager, which is just not good enough when we're talking about average users; most people don't even know what a file manager is let alone how to handle naming items within one.
