No alt tag for images, only the alt tags in the media library. Terrible SEO.

    You can only set the alt tag of the media and not the images on pages. This is terrible for SEO and accessibility. Especially sites with multiple languages as you can’t use different keywords for the same image or have to have multiple copies of the same images in your gallery to try and get around this problem.

    Hi there,

    You can set alt text for images directly within the WordPress media library. When you add or edit an image in the media library, there’s an option to set the alt text. Once set, this alt text should be used wherever the image is displayed on your site, including within Elementor.

    However, I have added this idea to our internal list as a Feature Request, so this feature might appear in one of the future Elementor updates. Thank you for your feedback!

    There might be third-party plugins available that have such a feature so you can join our Elementor Facebook Group ? and check with our users there for such a plugin recommendation.

    The default WordPress installation has alt tag fields for images. Can you please put back the field for the alt tag so when people click on an image they can set it properly like in any other part of WordPress (in galleries, for images, etc.)? Maybe you accidently removed it from your plugin at sometime. This is not something other users should have to fix as it’s a basic accessibility and SEO setting built into WordPress. Also just out of interest, how many programmers work at Elementor? Is Elementor a big company or small group of programmers?
