Description Kilkenni 2026-01-08 00:05:15 UTC 
SUMMARY
Alt texts added to posts post facto via "Edit" are not saved.
Important because I often use Altbot-generated descriptions, which are created only after it "sees" the image (i.e. these are intended to be added afterwards).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a post with an image included. Do not add alt text for the image.
2. Post it.
3. Open the post for editing and add alt text. Save.

OBSERVED RESULT
Check the image or open the post for editing again - alt text is not saved. If the text in the post is also modified, these changes ARE saved.

EXPECTED RESULT
All changes to the post should be saved, including alternative text.
