The lack of this feature is the only reason that we cannot host our clients sites on webflow. It's a shame that such a small thing makes the "editor" worthless for our clients. Just add the feature already...

This feature was not "SHIPPED". That's a lie. The simplist use case is changing the alt text of a static image. That is not supported.
Just because you can change the alt text of CMS images and rich text images doesn't mean this feature is supported.

To add to this thread also, if I have an image on the site, with an alt tag set, and then in the editor update the image the alt tag gets removed. This is not good for site SEO.

One of the big selling points of Webflow is the ease of use for the client to update content using the editor, without being able to create/update alt tags from the editor is a major set back. Please Webflow fix this issue I don't want my clients to want to use Wordpress any more!! This is basic CMS functionality from their point of view.

Mandatory for accessibility! Most of my clients don't use the designer and exclusively use the editor. Clients who need to replace non-collection images are struggling since certain accessibility standards are now legally risky or illegal (California/EU) and I'm having to manually make changes for them which isn't sustainable.

100% please add this, as others have said, this is now a designer task when it really should be an editor task.

Desperately need this - clients' technical SEO is adding to my workload and they are asking to do this themselves.

Zero votes left for me. But this seems to be such a no-brainer: Of course editors need that kind of SEO control!!!

We definitely need this. I've tried to workaround this by adding images to a Collection, but currently you're only allowed to have 20 Collections on a page and my homepage would exceed that! I hope Webflow has an update for us soon.
