 * Hello,
 * On-page SEO check tools seem to show that that the video placeholder image does
   not have an alt-tag. It shows as empty in the code: alt=””
 * Any function.php code I can use to make the alt-tag same as the title, as a quick
   fix?
 * Or to add my own? (preferred)

 * The visible LYTE div does not have in image tag, as the the thumbnail is added
   as a background-image. As such I don’t think an alt-tag is appropriate there,
   but as an alternative we could give the div a title-tag with as value the title
   of the video as retrieved from YT?
