FAQ
-
Can I overwrite existing alt text?
-
Yes, you can. The plugin only automatically fills alt text when the field is empty. If you later decide to change or add custom alt text, you can always go to your WordPress Media Library and manually edit the alt text for any image. The plugin will not overwrite your manual changes.
-
Does it work with all image types?
-
Yes, it works with JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and all standard WordPress image types.
-
What if my filename is not very descriptive? (e.g., IMG_1234.jpg)
-
The plugin’s primary goal is to provide a fallback to avoid empty alt tags. While it will use IMG_1234 as a fallback, it’s a good practice to rename your image files before uploading them for better SEO. For example, my-new-puppy.jpg would result in the alt text “My new puppy.”
