Links do not have a discernible name

Dear GP Team,
Im working on google lighthouse >> Accessibility right now.
I'm only left with one notice which is that the Link <a href="#"> does not have a discernible name. It is the add to cart panel of the site template called "Niche".
To solve this I would need to insert an arial-label.
However, I am stuck here and I can't figure out how to add it into the add to cart panel link.
Sorry to bother about that really. I know you're super busy with GPblocks pro. So excited to get it ;-)
Best, Adrien
Hi there,
Which link are we talking about here, exactly? Took a look around but wasn't able to spot it.
Let me know :)
Hello Tom,
I made a quick video for you: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/2279091?key=6a22ae4f9068708a6f0f08df3a51f1f4
Appreciate your help. Best, Adrien.
That's strange, as the link itself has text (Continue Shopping). I wouldn't have thought that a link that contains static text would also need an aria-label, as the text itself is the label for the link.
As of right now that Continue Reading div isn't filterable, so there's no way to alter the HTML (add an aria-label) without editing the plugin itself.
I can add a filter to that area in 1.13.0. I could also add an aria-label to it by default, but I'll need to research that a bit as I'm not 100% sure it's necessary.
Appreciate your reply Tom and your taking the time.
I was working on this by pure vanity ;-) Hence, please do not worry at all. I'll just skip this and see if one day you come up with something or if this is in fact a false error from the lighthouse.
It may be better to just turn it into a <button> element. I'll play with it :)
Thanks!
Hi @Tom,
This issue is still exist.
fyi.
