On an upgraded Tiki to version 29.1 I have articles using their own image and no "Image alternative text" was set as this is not mandatory.
However if I try to modify the content an old article on save the page reload no save and I don't see an error.
Only when I go to the "Image" tab of the edit article interface I can see an error message.Add a value for the field "Image alternative text" solve the issue.
If a value is mandatory NOW, a red asterisk or something on the field should show it is mandatory.
If a user edit an article that was created BEFORE the change then the issue should be pointed inside or outside the tab Image so the user see what is the problem.- Importance
