 * Hello, is it possible to manually set/override the og:image:alt tag with Yoast?
 * Hoping for something like: wpseo_og_og_image_alt
 * or equivalent. Any suggestions? Thanks!

 * Hello [@rzack](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rzack/),
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * With the Yoast SEO plugin, you can manually specify og:image tags for each post,
   through the plugin under the Social tab and adding the alt attributes at the 
   same time. You should ensure that your primary og:image is between 1200x800px
   and 2000x1600px, and is less than 2mb in size. You can learn more at [https://yoast.com/advanced-technical-seo-social-image-ogimage-tags/](https://yoast.com/advanced-technical-seo-social-image-ogimage-tags/)

 * Thanks [@maybellyne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maybellyne/), but I 
   am looking for a way to do this programmatically, using a filter, and not by 
   setting this manually thru the Social tab. Possible?
