How to remove image title when hovering over image

  • How do I remove the image title so that the mouse pointer doesn’t display the image title when hovering over an image? I have searched everywhere and can’t find a solution.

    I am currently using Prophoto 2. I have seen other Prophoto blogs without the annoying little image title and I would like to do the same. My blog is found here.

    I am not very familiar with css and code. In fact on another forum someone suggested adding a code to my function.php, so I stuck it in where I thought it might work and almost gave myself a heart attack! My whole blog looked ruined with funky wording at the top, but luckily I was able to navigate to where I inserted the coding and removed it. Whew! Now I am terrified of just “inserting” some code somewhere, so I would extremely appreciate clear instructions on how to do this. Thank you in advance for your time.

    Okay, I understand everything except where to upload the file into Prophoto theme folder.

    Use FTP or cPanel’s File manager and upload the .js file to /wp-content/themes/prophoto2/

    Joseph, I’m afraid I just don’t understand what you’re talking about in the last post. I understand though if you don’t want to spend more time on this problem- the information you’ve given is extremely helpful and I will use it once I figure out where to use that FTP stuff. ??

    Not at all, happy to help. I’ll explain in more detail.

    Let’s forget about FTP since you should have used cPanel before, when installing WordPress.

    You can access cPanel through your webhost once you’ve logged into your hosting account (it looks like the images in https://www.cpanel.net/products/cpanelwhm/try-demo.html). Once you’re in cPanel, look for a tool called File Manager, click on it and choose the Web Root (public_html/www) option. Lastly, once you’re in file manager, go to wp-content > themes > prophoto2 and use the upload button to upload the file.

    Thank you very, very much for your time! I am not self-hosting. However, my cousin set everything up for me so I am going to pass on your instructions to him and see if he can rig the code the way you’ve explained. Thank you again for making this change possible to myself & all those in the WordPress community who have been perplexed with this issue. You rock!

    You’re welcome. Glad to have helped ??

    Thanks Joseph, worked perfectly ^_^

    Add to footer.php before </body>:

    <script type=”text/javascript”>
    jQuery(‘document’).ready(function($){
    $(‘[title]’).removeAttr(‘title’);
    });
    </script>
