It's almost impossible to add ALT text to images in product listings

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to make my website WCAG AA compliant, and I'm having a very hard time adding ALT text to images in my product listings on shop pages. I add a product photo to a list, then Edit Metadata. I'll type descriptive ALT text, then when I click "Apply" nothing happens. It works maybe 1 in 10 tries, and I have to completely exit my browser each time I re-attempt adding ALT text. Is there a better way to add ALT text to product listing images? If someone has a code snippet that solves this problem or CSS I could add to add my ALT text manually, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @velocifriend

Have you figured it out yet? Either way, I’m here to help you now. I just tested it on my own website, and it’s working perfectly, as you can see in the attached video.

Try logging out of Squarespace, clearing your browser’s cache, and then logging back in.

Feel free to reach out if you need any more help. Have a nice day.
