    A few weeks ago the look of my media library changed. There is now an overlay of the photo title (in a white box) over each thumbnail. I find it very distracting, used to looking for photos visually after fifteen years of it.

    I’ve searched online and here and have found no help with how I might remove those titles and go back to the simpler view. Any ideas would be welcome!

    This is a change that was introduced in WordPress 7.0. It is intended to help users see file names more quickly. To my knowledge, there is no option to disable this.

    The only way to achieve this is with custom CSS for the backend:

    .wp-core-ui .attachment:not(:has(.filename))::after { display: none }
