Add Alt Tags To Images

[brandon_leibowitz]

Is there an image library or a place I can manage all the images to add alt tags to them for SEO purposes?

Hi @brandon_leibowitz,

Isn't a feature of Magento but you will find several options at the Marketplace: https://marketplace.magento.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=image%20gallery#q=image%20gallery&idx=m2_clo...

This is a way to add an image gallery on your website, but I need a way to manage all the images on the back-end and ensure they have alt tags. How can this be done?

In Magento default theme, the alt tag is added to every image where images are called.

In Default Magento is possible :

With this code, you can add the Alt tag single product.

Go to Admin->Catalog->Manage Product

Open any product then go to the images tab

Now Just add a label for the images. This label will be taken as alt & title by Default Magento

For adding the Alt tag to all images you so you need to some custom code on that theme or custom modules in order to fix the issue.

Hi everyone 

Is the field in magento images an actual alt tag field or do we need to add some code in the background?

You can run an import profile to update all the image_label, thumbnail_label and small_image_label to every product image.
