Adding a title attribute on the image tag - How to customize article's full image layout?

Question

I want the full image of an article to use the value of an alt attribute in a title attribute, too. I have been searching everywhere and just can't find the correct file.

The file which provides the image to be shown is

/components/com_content/views/article/tmpl/default.php

When I delete this part:

<?php echo JLayoutHelper::render('joomla.content.full_image', $this->item); ?>

The image doesn't get rendered anymore.

Where can I edit the HTML of it, so I can copy&paste the variable which is used for the img alt attribute into the title attribute?

Answer 1

The file you are looking for is located in:

[ROOT_DIRECTORY]/layouts/joomla/content/full_image.php

To create an override for it, copy it and place it inside:

[ROOT_DIRECTORY]/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/html/layouts/joomla/content/full_image.php

There you can modify it as you like.
