What’s Changed

Added

  • Two checks on the image title attribute — img-title-duplicates-alt and img-title-on-decorative, both notes.

    Deliberately not a “missing title” check, which is what tools normally ship here. A title is a hover tooltip: invisible on touch, unread by Google, and W3C guidance discourages putting anything that matters in it. An image without one has nothing wrong with it, so that check would fire on nearly every image on nearly every site.

    What is worth reporting is when title contradicts something on the same tag. Repeating alt verbatim adds nothing for a sighted visitor and is read twice by a screen reader that surfaces both — usually one CMS field populating both attributes. And a title on an image declared decorative by alt="" or role="presentation" is markup saying “ignore this” while attaching a tooltip to it; one of the two statements is wrong.

    Verified against wpbeginner.com, which carries a title on 26 of its 117 images: 14 identical to the alt, 6 on decorative images.
