常见问题:
Does this overwrite existing ALT text?
No, not by default. Only fill empty ALT is enabled by default and Overwrite existing ALT is disabled.
Is this plugin useful for SEO?
Yes. It helps maintain descriptive image ALT text, which improves image context for search engines and accessibility tools.
Where is ALT text stored?
In the standard WordPress attachment meta key _wp_attachment_image_alt, so it remains compatible with SEO plugins.
Which images are processed for auto ALT text?
Only new uploads are processed when Auto-generate ALT on media upload is enabled. You can turn this on/off in the Automation tab.
Can it scan my old images every day for missing ALT text?
Yes. Enable Daily scan for missing ALT in the Automation tab, choose time/scope/mode, and the plugin will process up to your daily max image limit.
Can I run the daily scan immediately?
Yes. Use Run scan now in the Automation tab to trigger the same scan logic instantly and refresh status counters.
Where can I find Generate History?
Go to Altify AI > Generate History in WP Admin. The Settings page also includes a quick history table showing the latest 10 rows.
Can I process only images with missing ALT text?
Yes. Bulk mode defaults to Only missing ALT, and you can switch to all images if needed.
Does this plugin support bulk image ALT text generation?
Yes. The Bulk Generator tab processes existing Media Library images in batches with pause/resume controls.
What happens if OpenAI API fails or rate limits?
The plugin retries with exponential backoff for temporary API errors and uses a clean metadata-based fallback ALT text if needed.
Can I generate ALT text without OpenAI?
Yes. Use the Offline Mode tab to run metadata-only generation with zero API calls.
Can AI analyze the actual image (not only filename/title)?
Yes, when Analyze actual image (Vision) is enabled in settings.\
When disabled (default), generation is metadata-only (filename/title/caption/description).
Does the plugin upload image files to OpenAI?
By default, no.\
If Analyze actual image (Vision) is enabled, the plugin sends a resized image preview to OpenAI for analysis.
Can it generate featured image ALT text automatically?
Yes. Upload automation covers regular WordPress images, including featured images when they are image attachments in your library.
Does it support WooCommerce image ALT updates?
Yes. It can process product featured images and gallery images when WooCommerce support is enabled.
Can I run this on multilingual sites?
Yes. Choose Auto (site locale), select from many built-in languages, or use Custom to enter any language name.
Can I control cost and API usage?
Yes. You can configure model, max tokens, temperature, batch size, and requests-per-minute limit.
Can I delete history rows?
Yes. History is shown in a table with Select all, Remove Selected, and Clear All actions.
