Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Image Alt Text

The default WordPress media library requires you to open each image individually to edit its alt text. Image Alt Text shows all your images in a single table, with or without alt text, and lets you edit, copy, or bulk-update alt text without leaving the page or refreshing.

Alt text is one of the few direct on-page signals Google uses to understand image content. Images without alt text are invisible to search engines, so they cannot be indexed for image search and contribute nothing to your page's keyword relevance. Filling in missing alt text is one of the fastest, lowest-effort SEO improvements you can make to an existing site.

Yes. Image Alt Text works with all images in the WordPress media library, including WooCommerce product images, gallery images, and variation images. You can view and update alt text for every product image from the same table interface.

Yes, with Image Alt Text Pro. Pro supports OpenAI GPT-4o, Google Gemini, Claude AI, and Hugging Face. Alt text is generated automatically on every image upload with no manual steps. You can also run AI generation across your entire existing library in one click.

Yes, with Image Alt Text Pro. Its Send Image Context to AI option passes the image filename and the attached post or page title into the AI request, so the alt text can name the real venue, product, or location instead of only describing what is visible in the picture. A context strength setting (Strict, Balanced, or SEO) controls how strongly those keywords are used, and the feature is off by default so you choose when to share that context.

Yes, with Image Alt Text Pro. The Alt Text Prefix / Postfix feature wraps a fixed piece of text, such as a brand name or product type, before and after your alt text across your whole library, with no manual editing. You can apply it to copied titles, copied filenames, AI-generated text, and auto-add on upload independently, and leaving the fields empty changes nothing.

AI models include a small amount of built-in randomness, so identical images can produce slightly different wording on different runs. Image Alt Text Pro includes an output consistency control that lets you make the AI more consistent and repeatable, so your whole library reads in a uniform style.

Use the Bulk Actions dropdown to copy filenames or post titles to alt text across multiple selected images at once. Select all images on the current page or pick specific ones, choose your action, and apply. Pro users can process the entire library with a single click using One-Shot Bulk Processing.

Yes. Proper alt text is required for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance. The plugin makes it easy to identify and fix images missing alt text across your site. Image Alt Text Pro adds decorative image support, automatically injecting aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip non-informative images entirely.

No redo option is available currently. We recommend testing bulk actions on a small selection first before processing your entire library.
