## Description

**Adbear Alt Text Generator** helps you audit and fix image metadata across your
WordPress site. It scans your media library, finds images that are missing alt text
or titles, and suggests readable values based on each file name. You review every
suggestion before applying it—nothing is changed automatically without your approval.

This plugin is built for site owners, SEO specialists, and store managers who need
a practical workflow to improve image accessibility and search visibility without
editing attachments one by one in the Media Library.

#### Key features

 * **Media library scan** — Batch-scans all image attachments and lists only those
   missing alt text, a title, or both.
 * **Smart suggestions** — Converts file names (for example `blue-running-shoes.
   jpg`) into human-readable alt text and title suggestions.
 * **Review before apply** — Edit suggestions inline and apply changes per image
   with a single click.
 * **Usage context** — Shows where each image is used, including posts, pages, Elementor
   content, ACF fields, and WooCommerce products.
 * **WooCommerce optimization** — One-click bulk update for product featured and
   gallery images using the product name when metadata is missing.
 * **CSV export** — Download scan results for reporting or offline review.
 * **Media Library column** — See at a glance which images still need SEO metadata
   directly in **Media  Library**.

#### Who is this for?

 * Blogs and business sites with large media libraries and incomplete image metadata.
 * WooCommerce stores that need consistent alt text on product images.
 * Teams using Elementor or Advanced Custom Fields who want to see which uploaded
   images are referenced in page builder or custom field content.

#### How it works

 1. Install and activate the plugin.
 2. Open **Alt Text Generator** in the WordPress admin sidebar.
 3. Click **Start Scan** to analyze your media library in batches (safe for large libraries).
 4. Review the results table: current values, suggested alt/title, and where each image
    is used.
 5. Edit suggestions if needed, then click **Apply** on each row to save changes.
 6. Optionally export results as CSV or use **Optimize WooCommerce Images** if WooCommerce
    is active.

The plugin does not call external APIs and does not use AI services. Suggestions
are generated locally from file names and, for WooCommerce images, from product 
titles.

#### Permissions

Users who can upload files (`upload_files` capability) can access the plugin settings
and apply changes.

## Installation

#### Automatic installation

 1. In your WordPress admin, go to **Plugins  Add New**.
 2. Search for **Adbear Alt Text Generator**.
 3. Click **Install Now**, then **Activate**.

#### Manual installation

 1. Upload the `adbear-alt-text-generator` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.

 3. Go to **Alt Text Generator** in the admin menu to run your first scan.

No additional configuration or API keys are required.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin change images automatically?

No. The scan only reports missing metadata and shows suggestions. You choose what
to apply, row by row. The WooCommerce optimizer only fills empty alt text and titles
using the product name—it does not overwrite existing values.

### Do I need an API key or external service?

No. All scanning and suggestion logic runs on your server.

### Will this work with large media libraries?

Yes. The scan runs in batches of 50 images at a time so it stays responsive on sites
with thousands of attachments.

### Does it support WooCommerce?

Yes. When WooCommerce is active, the plugin detects product images, shows WooCommerce
usage in scan results, and provides an **Optimize WooCommerce Images** action for
bulk fixes.

### Does it detect Elementor or ACF usage?

Yes. During a scan, the plugin checks whether images appear in Elementor post meta
or ACF field data and includes that context in the **Used In** column.

### What user role can use this plugin?

Any user with the `upload_files` capability (typically Authors and above, depending
on your site configuration).
