Existing alt text – exclude words
-
Hello, great plugin!
I would like to exclude alt text including specific words so that these alt texts are not touched (logo, name etc.).
The plugin can easily identify them and overwrite them with with another phrase but I do not find a prompt that it uses the whole existing one or leaves it simply as it is.
I checked some prompt versions but none of them really worked.
Thankful for a hint.

Thanks for the suggestion, that’s a good idea! I’ve added it in 2.6.0 which just went out — under Bulk Generation there’s now a field where you can list words like “logo” or “sponsor”, and any image whose alt text contains one of them gets left alone.
Great to hear! Thank you very much, a big improvement, not only for me, I guess!
Unfortunately there is no possibility to test it because it only seems to work when bulk generating, not when testing… But I trust you and will run it blindly… 😉
Edit: It did not work. All texts with my excluded words were overwritten. This is much work now to change all back to the former version. After 200 written alt texts I stopped the generation not to increase the labour.
BTW, two other suggestions:
1. If you changed the information that your plugin is tested with the current version of WP it would probably enlarge the number of your users.
2. While bulk generating there is this green message “Bulk generating completed!” – and it is not nearly done!?Seems to work fine! Thank you very much!
Just one question:
(Why) do one obviously has to manually initiate “Process Next Batch” again and again? Is this necessary? I thought, “Bulk Generation” is an automated process (or I would wish it to be), without any intervention till the end.
