Best Practices for Images in SOPs

  1. Always include alt text for accessibility
  2. Use descriptive file names that make sense
  3. Organize images in logical folders
  4. Optimize file sizes for faster loading
  5. Test images in both desktop and mobile views

Troubleshooting

If images don’t appear:

  1. Check that the file path is correct
  2. Verify the file exists in the expected location
  3. Ensure the file extension is supported (.jpg, .png, .svg, etc.)
  4. Clear your browser cache and refresh the page
