Hello,

Seems that your images don’t have an alternative text in Dashboard -> Media -> Library.

You should define it for each image that has this error and check the issue again.

In the meantime, feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

Kind Regards

Thanks a lot !!!

There are and other alerts, can you check them?
– 2 X Unlabeled form control with title
<input type=”text” class=”s” placeholder=”Search for products” value=”” name=”s” aria-label=”Search” title=”Search for products”>
– 1 X Redundant link
– 10 X Very small text
– 17 X Redundant title text

Hello,

You need to check all the alerts one by one and fix them in your Dashboard. Some of them related to small text, so you need to increase the font size. Others tell you about the title and alt tags for your image. You can change these texts in the Media library.

Kind Regards

I know how to change the alt text in Media library, but it is not about alt text
I’m asking about the other errors

Pls can you explain how to fix them one by one ?
– 2 X Unlabeled form control with title => I don’t know how to fix it
<input type=”text” class=”s” placeholder=”Search for products” value=”” name=”s” aria-label=”Search” title=”Search for products”>

– 1 X Redundant link => I don’t know how to fix it

– 10 X Very small text => Ι have added to Custom CSS:
.wd-tools-element.wd-design-2 .wd-tools-count, .wd-tools-element.wd-design-5 .wd-tools-count {font-size: 14px;}
but some times shows = “9px;” and others times “14px;”. Why, is it a bug ?

– 17 X Redundant title text => I can’t fix it
Thanks

Hello,

Our search form doesn’t have a label, only input (as you can see on your website). That is why you can’t fix the first issue.

You need to remove the compare element from the header since you don’t have a compare page configured. Or follow our documentation to setup the compare page https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/compare/

Very small text is not about numbers in the header. It finds hidden text labels there and shows this alert. You can simply ignore it.

Check your footer icons for example and correct according to the error text https://gyazo.com/591a797a36b879c94c4220d325e0fc1f

Kind Regards

Thanks

Last error:
“Anchor contains no text. Repair: Add text to the a element or the title attribute of the a element or, if an image is used within the anchor, add Alt text to the image.”
Pls can you check it?

Hello,

We don’t see this notice. Could you please send us a screenshot?

This error comes from WPML because language switcher flags don’t contain any texts. They contain images.

Any chance you can help me fix this?

You need to consult with the WPML team for help on this matter because this is not related to our theme.

Kind Regards

ok thanks

You are welcome!
