Do not map alt text from photo title

[jgmac1106]

While trying to do this:

post an image with alt text and syndicate to twitter

I encountered this:

photo-title p-name is used to generate alt text. This is problematic as p-name is what syndicates to Twitter and is the title displayed within Known CMS.

Often I would write this to be different than the alt-text

Solution

Add an alt-text field to anytime a photo is uploaded.

I am going to take this lt="getTitle()), ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'); ?>"/> and then see if I can create a new variable and an input field in the template and switch it out.

A quick attempt : https://github.com/cdn/photo/tree/per_image_alts (now with all changes pushed)

Current display template appends to the title…

This is on my list, along with a bit of an overhaul of the photos plugin
