Avatar images in Recent Activity widget missing descriptive alt attributes. #241

Summary

On the Make WordPress Accessible blog, the "Recent Activity" widget in the sidebar displays user avatar images. However, these images lack appropriate alt text.

Issue

Currently, the img elements used for avatar thumbnails either:

  • Have an empty alt="" attribute, or
  • Are missing the alt attribute entirely

This negatively impacts accessibility for screen reader users who cannot determine the author of the recent activity without visual context.
