Rashid ALT Coverage Manager

Description

Rashid ALT Coverage Manager reads the real structure of your pages (Gutenberg blocks, Classic Editor HTML and Elementor layouts), groups images under the section heading they belong to, and lets you write ALT text exactly where it is shown.

Everything below is free. Nothing is locked.

ALT Coverage Dashboard

• Total Images, With ALT and Missing ALT cards. Click a card and the matching images open right below the cards, grouped by page and section.
• Edit ALT text inline. Each save is read back from the database before it is reported as successful; the counts update and finished sections and pages disappear from the Missing list.
• Decorative images (empty ALT on purpose – role=”presentation”, aria-hidden, a “decorative” class, tiny images or file names like “spacer”) are shown separately and never counted as missing.
• Search across page titles, section headings, file names and ALT text. Pagination keeps large sites fast.

Page-wise ALT Manager

• Searchable page tabs. Only sections that contain images are shown, each with its detected heading.
• “This page only” ALT (changes just that image on that page) or “Media Library” ALT (shared by every page using the image).

Bulk ALT Manager

• Use each section’s heading as ALT text for its images: preview first, confirm, batch processing with progress, cancel and resume.
• Shared Media Library images used under different headings are reported as conflicts and left unchanged.

ALT Quality & Duplicates

• Quality Checker flags ALT text that may need review: file names, generic words (“image”), “image of…” prefixes, very long text, repeated words, keyword lists and meaningless text. Every rule can be switched off or tuned – these are hints, not verdicts.
• Duplicate ALT Detector lists identical ALT text used by several images, with counts and pages, so you can review each one in context.

ALT Health Score

• A 0–100 score per page and for the whole site, with the formula explained on screen. It measures detected ALT text only – it is not an accessibility certification or an SEO ranking score.

History & Undo

• Every change is recorded (page, image, previous and new ALT, storage method, user, time, operation). Filter by page, image, date or operation, undo a single change, or restore the last bulk update. Undo never overwrites a newer edit. Retention is configurable.

Automatic new image detection

• When content is saved or images are uploaded, only the changed pages are re-scanned in the background (WP-Cron). Saving is never slowed down and existing ALT text is never changed automatically.

Safety

• Admin-only: nothing is added to your public pages (no frontend scripts, styles or markup).
• Capability, nonce and per-post permission checks on every request.
• Only the alt attribute of the selected image changes; the rest of the content stays byte-for-byte the same. Content saves create normal WordPress revisions.
• Page builders that store layouts outside the editor content (Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, Brizy, Thrive) are detected and limited to Media Library mode, so nothing is written where it would not take effect. CSS background images are shown as unsupported (they cannot have ALT text).

An optional, separately distributed Pro add-on can add tools to the “Pro Tools” tab. This plugin works completely without it.
