Description
BlockFact Verified Images lets you use .facti files — blockchain-verified photos — directly in your WordPress site.
Every .facti file contains a photo with embedded provenance: who took it, when, where, and a cryptographic proof registered on the StarkNet blockchain. This plugin makes those files work natively in WordPress.
Features:
- Upload .facti files to the WordPress Media Library
- Automatic thumbnail generation for media grid
- Gutenberg block: “BlockFact Verified Image” with verification badge
- Verification badge links directly to the blockchain proof
- REST API endpoint for accessing .facti metadata
- Works with both StarkNet mainnet and Sepolia testnet
Built for journalists and newsrooms who need to prove their photos are authentic.

What is a .facti file?

A .facti file is a blockchain-verified image container created by the BlockFact app. It wraps a standard JPEG or PNG with cryptographic metadata proving when, where, and on what device the photo was taken.

Do I need a blockchain wallet?
-
No. The plugin reads the verification data from the .facti file and links to the public blockchain proof. No wallet or crypto knowledge needed.
