TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners and SEO practitioners who want cleaner, keyword-friendly filenames for their media library files. It solves the problem of manually renaming media files without breaking references, by auto-updating links across the site, syncing alt/title text, and preserving search rankings with 301 redirects.

  • Rename media files from Media Library
  • Bulk renaming with sequential naming
  • AI renaming with OpenAI key
  • Automatic reference updates in content
  • Rename history with undo
  • 301 redirect creation for renamed files
  • Alt text and title sync
  • Rename all thumbnail sizes

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about File Media Renamer for SEO

No. The plugin updates all references site-wide and creates 301 redirects from old URLs to new ones.
Yes. Each file maintains a short rename history so you can revert quickly.
Yes. All image sizes are renamed and redirected together with the main file.
301 redirects preserve SEO value and help search engines understand the change.
On very large batches, an individual AI request can occasionally take longer than your hosting's PHP max_execution_time (often 30s on shared hosting) or the AI provider's own response time under load, causing that single step to time out. When this happens the affected file(s) are marked as failed instead of the whole batch silently freezing, and you can click Retry failed to resume just those files without restarting the entire batch. If you run large batches regularly, consider asking your host to raise max_execution_time to 60-120 seconds, and keep the browser tab active/in the foreground while a large batch runs (backgrounded tabs can be throttled by the browser).
