I am using a code to call WP thumbnails and want to add a title="" tag. I would like the title to call the_title... how do I do so? I want to assign the title tribute to the image, not the link.

My code:

<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { the_post_thumbnail( 'thmb-archive' ); } ?>

Use the arguments available for the_post_thumbnail() function as written in the codex.

Edit: just did a test with this and it worked for me:

$post_title = the_title( '', '', false);//get the title
$attr = array('title' => $post_title);//set the parameter 
the_post_thumbnail('full', $attr);//call the function

  • I don't believe this works correctly, when done correctly it should assign the title to the image. Commented Aug 2, 2011 at 21:35
  • Yes, to the thumbnail actually, i just tested on a project i'm on with this exact function. Commented Aug 2, 2011 at 21:42
  • themeforward.com/demo2/templates/archive When no image is assigned a title is in place of the image. However, the code above does not do the same. Commented Aug 2, 2011 at 21:52
