Are Icon ToolTips SEO Friendly?

Hey wildturkeyway,

Thank you for the inquiry.

There is no option for an alt attribute in an icon element, but you can add it manually with a script. Please edit the Icon, go to the Advanced > Developer Settings panel, then in the Custom CSS Class field, add the class name “av-icon-with-alt-a”. After that, add this code in the functions.php file.

function av_custom_inline_script()
{
    wp_add_inline_script( 'jquery', 
        "
    (function($) {
        // add alt text to icon
        $(document).ready(function() {
            var altxt = 'ADD YOUR ALT TEXT HERE';
            $('.av-icon-with-alt-a').attr('alt', altxt);
        }); 
    })(jQuery);
    "
    );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'av_custom_inline_script' );

You can replace the alt text by editing this line.

var altxt = 'ADD YOUR ALT TEXT HERE';
