Problems with alt text

Recommended Posts

Site URL: http://talktoloop.org

Hello and thank you in anticipation for your help... if anyone knows the answer.

I have been adding alt text to my images on this website http://talktoloop.org

But the alt text doesn't seem to be working... 

One of my colleagues thinks it might be because the images are built as  div not  img ... this is a semantic difference to the browser, so the browser doesn’t understand that it’s an image, which is bad :disappointed:

I don't know if that's correct... but something is preventing Alt Text from working.

 

Any ideas gratefully received.

What makes you think the alt tags aren't working?

When a Squarespace feature isn't working as expected it is best to get straight in touch with Squarespace Customer Care. The forum community would love to help but we are unable to resolve technical issues with the platform. You can reach out to Customer Care using this link.

Do let us know how you get on.
