Divi Image Test

Divi image links don’t have a title attribute set and there isn’t a way to set them using the Divi UI.

Code Examples

Good

Even though there’s no title or text set in the link in this code, it will still supply a meaningful label when it’s click event is sent to GA by using the title text in the image’s HTML.

<!-- Note that the image's title and alt attributes are set. -->
<a href="https://www.elegantthemes.com/preview/Divi/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/beaten-path.jpg" class="et_pb_lightbox_image" title="">
  <span class="et_pb_image_wrap ">
    <img loading="lazy" src="https://www.elegantthemes.com/preview/Divi/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/beaten-path.jpg" alt="The Beaten Path Alt Text" title="The Beaten Path Title Text" width="auto" height="auto">
  </span>
</a>
Example goal of having meaningful event labels in GA reports.

Bad

This code usually generates a “(not set)” label in Google Analytics when it’s tracked. It’s because the image’s title and alt text are blank or don’t exist at all.

<!-- Note that the image's title and alt attributes are NOT set. -->
<a href="https://www.elegantthemes.com/preview/Divi/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/beaten-path.jpg" class="et_pb_lightbox_image" title="">
  <span class="et_pb_image_wrap ">
    <img loading="lazy" src="https://www.elegantthemes.com/preview/Divi/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/beaten-path.jpg" alt="" title="" width="auto" height="auto">
  </span>
</a>
Example of what we want to avoid.
