    The alt tag for the header (and possibly body) image is missing from the rendered page.

    Can we adjust the great theme to be in compliance?

    Thanks

    Hello,
    When you select an image through WordPress media uploader there is always an option to add alt text.

    Yes, and that is what is set for my jpg. A title and corresponding ALT tag.

    I then select:
    Appearance -> Customize -> Header Image
    Select the jpg I previously mentioned.
    Save.

    If you I look at any page rendered, that header image has no ALT tag.

    Not being a real PHP programmer I found the errant code:

    functions.php:

    $html.=’height).'” width=”‘.absint(get_custom_header()->width).'” alt=”” />’;

    Notice, nothing being populated in the Alt tag.

    What is the correct php to get it to populate?

    Thanks

    By the way did a kludge, but it doesn’t solve the long term problem. Add a text alt description.
