Set image title when uploading product using csv file

Hi there,

Is it possible to have the image title match the product title when viewed on the frontend, and if so how would I do this?

Out of the box, it isn’t possible to change the image title so that it matches the product title. You can make the change when you import/update the products via CSV file.

Hi @wpnomad,

Thanks for getting back to me.

What do you mean by “you can make the change when you import/update the products via CSV file”.

I want to upload an image from a URL included in the product CSV file, and appy a title to that image during the upload process.

Thanks for your help.

Hello @japenz,

I want to upload an image from a URL included in the product CSV file, and appy a title to that image during the upload process.

I found a similar question asked on StackOverflow, you can try the proposed solutions in the comments by adding them to your functions.php file or a plugin like Code Snippets.

If you’re going to try SQL query, then please make sure to have a reliable backup file of your website. Most host hosting companies have this included in the subscription, but you could also consider using a service like Jetpack. If something goes wrong, it’s nice to know that you can restore your site.

Hope this helps!
