It gives your\nWordPress media a home on the\n<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/desktop-mode\/\">OpenStation<\/a> desktop. Find an image,\nfile it into a folder, open it in the viewer, or prepare it for your next post \u2014\nall from the same window. Made by AllTerrainDeveloper, the developer behind AllTerrain\nForms and AllTerrain Photo Editor.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Folders and collections<\/strong> \u2014 a real tree, drag tiles to file them, save\nany search as a live collection. Create top-level folders or subfolders with\ninline forms. Filing shows progress and a saved or retryable error message.\nDeleting a folder keeps its media and moves its children up one level. Smart views for unattached, unfiled,\nmissing-alt, converted and duplicate files.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Convert between formats<\/strong> \u2014 JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and GIF, as a copy or\nin place, one file or a whole selection. The server converts with the\nImagick\/GD your host already has; formats your host lacks are encoded in\nyour browser instead (WebP\/JPEG\/PNG on the canvas, AVIF via a bundled\nopen-source WASM codec \u2014 jSquash, the Squoosh codecs, Apache-2.0).<\/li>\n<li><strong>iPhone photos just work<\/strong> \u2014 HEIC uploads convert to JPEG on the way in,\non hosts whose Imagick reads HEIC.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Replace in place<\/strong> \u2014 keep the attachment ID and retain the previous\noriginal as a restorable version. Same-format replacements keep the URL.\nChanging format changes the extension and URL; existing embedded links\nmay need updating.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Optimization Wizard<\/strong> \u2014 scans the library for oversized images,\nlegacy formats, missing alt text and duplicate files; shows the findings;\napplies the fixes you pick as a resumable batch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Used where?<\/strong> \u2014 every item shows the posts and settings using it, and\nthe delete dialog warns before you empty them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Made for the desktop<\/strong> \u2014 drag photos out of the grid into Gutenberg,\nonto kanban cards, into wallpaper folders; drop files from your computer\nstraight into a folder; \u2318K commands; AI alt-text drafting; typed\nAbilities so assistants can search, convert and file media with your\ncapability checks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>The classic Media Library is untouched, and deactivating removes every\nsurface. Uninstalling removes folders, collections and version files;\nyour current media attachments and files stay in the Media Library.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>OpenStation is required<\/strong> (the plugin dependency slug is <code>desktop-mode<\/code>).\nThe explorer is a native desktop window; without the shell, your folders\nand data are safe and a signpost page under Media explains where the\nproduct lives.<\/p>\n\n<h3>External services<\/h3>\n\n<p>AllTerrain MAIA has no telemetry, license server or service operated by its author.\nMedia browsing, conversion, EXIF reading and the wizard run on your site or\nin your browser. The AVIF codec is bundled and loaded from your own site.<\/p>\n\n<p>AI alt text is optional. Only after you click \u201cSuggest alt text (AI)\u201d and\nconfirm \u201cSend and draft\u201d are that image's URL, title and caption sent through\nOpenStation to the AI provider configured by your site administrator. That\nprovider may retrieve the image from its URL. No AI request is made by\nopening a window or scanning the library. Review the selected provider's\nterms and privacy policy in your site's AI provider configuration before\nsending media. AllTerrain MAIA does not choose or configure a provider.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Source<\/h3>\n\n<p>Source and build instructions: https:\/\/github.com\/AllTerrainDeveloper\/MAIA-Media-Asset-Interface-Administration\nThe repository contains TypeScript in src\/ and the Vite build configuration.\nRun npm ci and npm run build:bundles.
