## Description
Fix Experts AI Image Alt Tag Generator scans your Media Library and your published
post/page content for `![]()
` tags that are missing alt text. You review the list,
select the images you want to fix, and generate descriptive alt text with AI.
Unlike a plain image captioner, generated alt text is grounded in your own site:
your site name and tagline, a summary of your homepage and About page content, and
the title/excerpt of the page the image appears on. On WooCommerce sites, product
images instead use that specific product’s own name, category, and description as
the primary context — so alt text reads as “brand X hiking boots, waterproof” instead
of a generic “pair of shoes on a table.”
**Features**
* Scans the Media Library for attachments with empty `_wp_attachment_image_alt`
meta.
* Scans published post/page content for embedded `![]()
` tags with no (or empty)`
alt` attribute — independent of Media Library metadata.
* Pulls a summary of your homepage and About page so alt text reflects what your
site/business actually is, not just a literal pixel description.
* On WooCommerce sites, automatically detects product images and grounds their
alt text in that product’s name, category, and description.
* Select individual images or bulk-select, then generate alt text with one click.
* Review and edit AI suggestions before saving — nothing is written to your site
until you click Save.
* Uses WordPress core’s own AI Client (WordPress 7.0+) when a provider is configured
under Settings Connectors, so most users don’t need to manage a separate API
key at all. Falls back to your own Groq, Google Gemini, OpenAI, or Anthropic
key otherwise.
**Supported AI providers**
* WordPress AI Client (recommended) — uses whichever provider is already configured
for your site under Settings Connectors; requires WordPress 7.0+.
* Groq — free, no billing/payment method required, Llama 4 vision models.
* Google Gemini — free tier, but not available in all regions and may require billing.
* OpenAI — GPT-4o family vision models, billing required.
* Anthropic — Claude vision models, billing required.
### External services
This plugin connects to a third-party AI service to analyze an image and write alt
text for it. A request is sent only when a logged-in administrator explicitly clicks“
Generate” for a specific image, or “Generate AI Alt Text for Selected” for a batch—
nothing runs automatically, on a schedule, or for site visitors.
Each request sends: the image file itself, your site name and tagline, a short summary
of your homepage/About page content, the title and excerpt of the page the image
appears on (or the product name, category, and description for WooCommerce product
images), and your configured maximum alt text length. No visitor data, analytics,
or tracking information is ever sent.
You choose exactly one active provider under Settings Active Provider; only that
provider receives data.
**WordPress AI Client** (bundled in WordPress core from version 7.0)
When this
option is active, the request is routed through WordPress core’s own AI Client to
whichever provider you or your host configured under Settings Connectors. This
plugin does not see or store that provider’s credentials. The same image and context
data described above is sent to whichever provider is configured there; consult
that provider’s own terms and privacy policy.
**Groq** (https://groq.com)
Used to analyze the image and generate alt text with
a Llama vision model, when Groq is the selected provider. Terms of Use: https://

**Google Gemini API** (https://ai.google.dev)
Used to analyze the image and generate
alt text with a Gemini vision model, when Google Gemini is the selected provider.

**OpenAI** (https://openai.com)
Used to analyze the image and generate alt text
with a GPT-4o-family vision model, when OpenAI is the selected provider. Terms of
Use: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use Privacy Policy: https://openai.com/

**Anthropic** (https://www.anthropic.com)
Used to analyze the image and generate
alt text with a Claude vision model, when Anthropic is the selected provider. Terms

## Installation
1. Upload the `fix-experts-ai-image-alt-tag-generator` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`(
or install the zip via Plugins Add New Upload Plugin).
2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress.
3. Go to **Media Fix Experts AI Image Alt Tag Generator Settings** tab. If you’re
on WordPress 7.0+ with a provider configured under Settings Connectors, no further
setup is needed; otherwise add an API key for one of the other providers.
4. Go to **Media Fix Experts AI Image Alt Tag Generator Scan & Generate** tab, click“
Scan for Missing Alt Text”, select images, and generate.
## FAQ
### Does this modify my content automatically?
No. Generated alt text is only a suggestion until you click “Save” (per image) or“
Save All Generated” (bulk). You can edit any suggestion before saving.
### Which permission is required to use this?
Users need the `upload_files` capability to scan/generate, and `manage_options`
to change provider/API key settings.
### Will this work on very large sites?
The content scan is capped (default 200 posts/pages, configurable in Settings) to
avoid timeouts. Media Library scanning covers all attachments.
### Does this track me or my site visitors?
No. The plugin has no analytics, telemetry, or tracking of any kind. The only outbound
requests it makes are the AI generation requests described below, and only when
an administrator explicitly clicks Generate.
