"There is no alt text for this object."  en

Dear Support Team,

I am using WebSite X5 Pro version 2025.2.12 for my website, Van Abelshoeve Bernese Mountain Dog Kennel.

Under Project Optimization → Accessibility, I keep receiving the following error message:

"There is no alt text for this object."

I have already tried the following:

  • Entered both the Title and Caption under Image Object → SEO.

  • Saved the image settings again.

  • Reopened the project and checked the settings.

  • Added a completely new image.

  • Checked for software updates and confirmed that I am using the latest version.

Unfortunately, the error message still appears.

I also checked the HTML code using Chrome Developer Tools and confirmed that the alt attribute is missing from the image.

My question is:

How can I correctly add ALT text to images in WebSite X5 Pro 2025.2.12 so that it is included in the HTML code and the accessibility warning disappears?

Could this possibly be a bug in the software?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Kind regards,

Van Abelshoeve Bernese Mountain Dog Kennel

Image Accessibility: the importance of Alternative Text

...

From a technical perspective, adding alternative text is very simple:

  • Open the Image settings window for the image you want to edit.
  • In the Image File field where you imported the graphic file, you will find the button. Click it to open the Accessibility window.
