Alternate text for products

Is there a way to add alternate text for the items in my shop? I have found no way to do so. Currently if you go to the shop, right click on an image, click on "view image", then right click the image, and click on properties, the alternate text shows as the path for the image on my computer hard drive. Although I am not thrilled about that, I would also like for the alternate text to relate to the product itself, not a file on my computer. Thanks

Wouldn't want to end up like Target.com and get sued over accessibility. :)
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!

I am sorry but there is no way to set ALT text for any images in the software at this time.

Having just tried that I get www. mysite /ccdata/images/smallMain_0_1.jpg

Could the difference be that I export the shop to my local hard drive then ftp to my web server? I don't use the publish feature as I have multiple web sites and need to ensure that the files go in exactly the right folders.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
