Hello, is there a way we can add alt text for each slide/image? I had an idea to take the text overlapping the slide, and place it into the alt text field. However, if I want text on some slides, but not others, this method doesn’t work. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hi
You can try this:
Add a title in the slideshow module for the images.
Now open file /acm/slideshow/tmpl/style-owl.php" in template "ja_restaurant".
Find

alt=""

replace it with

alt="<?php echo $helper->get('data.title', $i) ?>"

Save and check, the title for the the images will be the alt text.

Regards

That’s what I initially did, but some of the slides wont have the Title fields filled out (ie: embedded text on the image). Is there another way?

Hi
If you will not add the title it will not appear, Or you have to do custom work in the ACM file to add new fields
If you want to hide the title and only want to use the alt text, kindly let me know, I will give you css to hide the title so only ALT text will appear and no title on any slides.

Regards
