How It Works

The AltTextify WordPress Plugin operates automatically in the background, ensuring your images always include optimized, AI-generated alt text — without any manual effort.

By default, the plugin automatically generates alt text for every new image uploaded to your WordPress site. It also integrates with popular SEO plugins to include relevant keywords, helping improve both accessibility and search visibility.

If you’d like to customize how the plugin behaves, navigate to the AltTextify Settings page in your WordPress admin panel. From there, you can fine-tune specific options, such as when and how alt text is generated.

Updating Posts and Pages

By default, WordPress assigns image alt text from the Media Library at the time an image is inserted into a post or page. This means that if you later update an image’s alt text in the Media Library, existing posts or pages using that image will not automatically reflect the change.

The AltTextify WordPress Plugin provides an easy way to keep your content synchronized. You can refresh the alt text in posts, pages, and WooCommerce products to match the most recent alt text stored in the Media Library. This can be done individually or in bulk.

Refreshing a Single Post or Page

1. Open the desired post or page in Edit mode.
2. In the sidebar, click the “Refresh Alt Text” button.
3. The plugin will automatically update all images within that post or page using the latest alt text from your Media Library.

---

Refreshing Multiple Posts or Pages

1. From your WordPress dashboard, open the Posts or Pages list view.
2. Select the checkboxes next to the items you’d like to update.
3. From the Bulk Actions dropdown, choose “Refresh Alt Text.”
4. Click Apply to update the selected posts or pages.

---

Reviewing Processed Images

The History page provides a complete overview of all images in your WordPress Media Library that have been processed by the AltTextify Plugin, along with their currently generated alt text.

By default, the list is sorted with the most recently processed images at the top, allowing you to easily see which items were updated last.

If you wish to refine or adjust any alt text, you can edit it directly on the History page. After making changes, simply click Update — your revised alt text will be immediately saved back to the corresponding image in the Media Library.
