AlexWright Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Is there a way to include alt="" text for the gallery, for the visually impaired who use screen readers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Can you clarify where/what you are referring to, because Gallery does already include alt text (using the image caption) everywhere I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexWright Posted September 8, 2020 Author Share Posted September 8, 2020 See, and here I thought it would use the description. The issue is not so much that the caption is a good use of the alt text, but would be good if it could be edited elsewhere. We've got a few members who have asked about this as they are visually impaired, and the Captions don't usually have much detail in regards to the content.

bfarber Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 If users aren't filling in a useful caption, why would they go out of their way to fill in useful "alt" text? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
