    Hi Guys,

    Using your Enfold Theme I like to use your buttons in my pages because they’re good for styling (the page looks better) but because you can’t add a title to the link when creating a button my website is getting a bad score for internal links. Is there any way to address this please?

    Keep up the good work!!

    Hi StormWebDesign,

    Not sure what you mean by that, do you mean the title meta tag? Please provide us with a link to the site in question so that we can take a closer look.

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Hi Rikard,

    Thank you for your prompt reply. Excellent customer service as always!

    Yes, it is the link title meta tag within the button that I am having a problem with for SEO purposes.

    A sample page where buttons are used:
    http://www.lammoresalestraining.com/ (there are three buttons used in the index page but they are used elsewhere throughout the website).

    I’ve previously tried to hard code the link title into the button however if I do that the hard coded link title is there, but it doesn’t render/appear in the page source code so it isn’t being picked up by search engines.

    Example of hard coded link title in a button:
    [av_button label='In-House Sales Training' link='page,161' title='In-House Sales Training' link_target='' size='small' position='center' icon_select='no' icon='ue800' font='entypo-fontello' color='theme-color' custom_bg='#444444' custom_font='#ffffff']

    Example of the original button code without the hard coded link title:
    [av_button label='In-House Sales Training' link='page,161' link_target='' size='small' position='center' icon_select='no' icon='ue800' font='entypo-fontello' color='theme-color' custom_bg='#444444' custom_font='#ffffff']

    Your help with this would be really appreciated Rikard as it is impacting SEO.

    Thanks again in advance,
    Johnny

    Hi Johnny!

    title is not a supported parameter for button by default, one thing you can do is replace the contents of /config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/buttons.php with the following:

    Hi Josue,

    Thanks for your fantastic support. I updated the buttons.php file with the new code but there still isn’t a place to insert/assign a “title” to the link within the button?

    Sorry to trouble you with this, but it does have an impact on Enfold’s SEO capability.

    Thanks again!!!
