GB Blocks – carousel – image title attributes

    Hello there.

    I’m using the Gutentor carousel module on my homepage, which is great and I’m really happy not having to use another plugin for this feature.

    There is just one thing that is very annoying:

    On mouse-over, it shows “page-title + a number” instead of the image’s title or title attribute. There seems to be no way to add an image title attribute anywhere or anyhow. This is driving me mad.

    I can open the page with the classic editor and there I can add title attributes to the images. But there are 2 issues:

    1. all the links and tags are gone and I have to add them in every single image.
    2. (and this is a real issue) whenever I open the page with the Blocks Editor and safe it. ALL the tags including the title attributes are gone again. It’s obvious that GB Block is overwriting these tags.

    So I could use the Classic Editor to solve the problem, but then I could never ever use the Blocks Editor on this page again!

    There must be a better solution.

    I’ve read (in 1-2 year old posts) that the title attributes are being deleted (or suppressed) by Gutentor/Gutenberg intentional claiming that it has no SEO purpose or benefit whatsoever. But the mouse-over effect for image-links is a major feature, that can not be ignored, can it?

    So I’m hoping that either I have overlooked something, or that someone can offer me a solution or work-around.

    Thanks for any help!
