## Description

Normally the title attribute of an image show up when hovering the mouse over an
image. This behavior can easily be avoided by removing the title attribute-tag from
the image. However if the site is already crowded with hundreds of images, removing
each and every title attribute-tag can be a time consuming job. This plugin simply
filters out all title attribute-tags before they are sent out to the browser. Install
into the theme plugin directory, activate, and you’re done! No more titles show 
up when hovering the mouse over images on your site!

### How it Works

All the plugin do is adding a hook to ‘the_content’ and to ‘post_thumbnail_html’
and removes all title-tags before they are sent to the browser. The plugin will 
only work for what is contained in ‘the_content’ and the ‘post_thumbnail_html’, 
i.e. it will not remove title attribute-tags from other parts of the site.

### Licence

This plugin is free for everyone! Since it’s released under the GPL, you can use
it free of charge on your personal or commercial blog. 🙂

## Installation

 1. Upload ‘img-title-removal.php’ to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

## FAQ

  Will the plugin remove all original img-titles that once were entered in the posts?

No, the plugin will not remove any title tag from any post. It will only filter 
them out before they are sent to the browser.
