    Hello:-)

    All images (in albums) are generated by JavaScript so there is no need for coping alt tag to it. So you wont see it, and there is no place to copy it from, as we prepare this list of images for search engines in other way.

    With kind regards.

    So, how are we to take advantage of alt tags in this theme if it's media is being generated via js? You say "we prepare this list of images for search engines in other way" but please explain in some detail what way that exactly is?

    -Cheers

    Hello:-)

    If you like you can deactivate JavaScript in your browser and then view source to see how it is exactly.
    search for <ul id="album-media-collection"
    Here is sample
    <ul id="album-media-collection" class="screen-reader-text">
    				<li class="album-item type-image subtype-jpeg" data-ratio_x="1" data-bg_color="" data-product_id="" data-thumb="http://192.168.1.2/wordpress/photon/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/04/slider4-150x150.jpg" data-brick_image="http://192.168.1.2/wordpress/photon/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/bfi_thumb/slider4-mc4i12ritq0t0erdqg7ia64zaqclza0izk2tawegho.jpg" data-main-image="http://192.168.1.2/wordpress/photon/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/04/slider4.jpg">
    		<a href="http://192.168.1.2/wordpress/photon/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/04/slider4.jpg">Beautiful Sunrise</a>
    					<div id="album-desc-1" class="album-desc">
    				Sunny Days sweepin' the clouds away. On my way to where the air is sweet.			</div>
    		</li>
    	...
    		</ul>
    That is how it looks for every image added to album. I hope that structure explains it enough. If not please ask:-)

    With kind regards.
