Description
Images without alt text are a problem for accessibility (screen readers) and SEO.
This lightweight plugin automatically adds alt attributes where they are missing:
- Inside post content uses the current post title.
- For images loaded via
wp_get_attachment_image()uses the image filename (without extension).
If an image already has alt text, the plugin leaves it untouched.
No settings, no configuration — just activate and your site is more accessible.
Features
- Improves accessibility by ensuring images have alt text.
- Helps SEO by filling in descriptive alt attributes.
- Post/page content images get the post title.
- Template images (e.g. theme calls) get the filename.
- Super lightweight and fast.
Installation
- Upload the plugin folder to
/wp-content/plugins/or install via Plugins > Add New. - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
- That’s it — missing alt attributes will now be auto-filled.
FAQ
-
Will this overwrite existing alt text?
-
No. If your image already has alt text, the plugin does nothing.
-
Can I choose what text gets used?
-
In version 1.0, no — it’s automatic. A future version may allow you to pick fallback options (post title, filename, site title, custom text).
-
Does this change my database?
-
No. The plugin only filters the output before rendering. It does not update the actual media library fields.
