    Hello @backpackstudio,

    Thanks for contacting us!

    Since the image is a decorative image, we have left the alt attribute empty, so that it will be “invisible” for the screen readers. However, I do agree it would be super helpful, and we’ll keep it on our radar as we plan out our roadmap in the future.

    If you have any other questions, please let me know 🙂

    Please note, that this is hard coded into plugin and site-owner does not have proper control over it. With an update fix in code will be overwritten.

    If formula is used on many pages (for example product pages on e-store), this triggers huge amount of SEO errors and reduces drastically SEO ranking.

    The product you provide should help to solve problems, not to cause new ones.
