It analyzes your existing images and generates accessible, natural-sounding alt text, plus optional titles, captions, and descriptions, to help you work towards WCAG compliance. Connect your site with one click and get 40 free credits to start generating. Need more later? Buy a credit pack directly from the Settings page whenever you run low– packs never expire, so there’s no subscription and no clock ticking on unused credits. Credits don’t expire, and one credit balance can be shared across multiple WordPress sites using your Sync Key. Bulk jobs run in the background, so you can process large Media Libraries without keeping your browser open. **This plugin connects to a remote cloud service to function.** Using it requires an explicit opt-in: click “Save Key & Connect to Cloud” on the Settings page, or click “Generate” on any image. Each image generation uses one credit. See “External Services” below for exactly what’s sent, where, and why. #### 🛠️ Key Features * **Bulk Generation:** Queue your entire Media Library for background processing. * **On-Demand Generation:** Generate metadata for individual images directly from the Media Library grid or list view. * **Smart & Respectful:** Existing metadata isn’t overwritten unless **Force overwrite** is enabled. * **Total Control:** Choose independently which metadata fields to generate. * **Accessibility First:** Generate descriptive, meaningful alt text to help make content more accessible to screen reader users and work towards WCAG compliance. * **Multi-Site Credits:** Share one credit balance across multiple WordPress sites using your Sync Key. #### 🚀 How It Works 1. Install and activate the plugin. 2. Connect your site in Settings to receive your 40 free credits. 3. Generate metadata for individual images or run a Bulk Job and let the AI process your images. #### 🔒 External Services & Privacy This plugin connects to a remote cloud service to function. AI processing happens securely in the cloud. By using this service, you agree to our [Terms of Service](https://wilderwoodswebdev.com/wilderwoods-alttext/wilderwoods-alttext-terms-of-service/) and [Privacy Policy](https://wilderwoodswebdev.com/wilderwoods-alttext/wilderwoods-alttext-privacy-policy/). Specifically: * **Image analysis**: When generating metadata, the image’s public URL and a short site summary (site name, homepage description, navigation labels – just enough for the AI to understand your niche, e.g. woodworking rather than travel) are sent to WilderWoods AltText Cloud, which forwards the image to Google’s Gemini API and returns the generated text. No image files are sent directly from your server to Google. [Google’s Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy) applies. * **Account & payments**: Your site is identified by a randomly generated Sync Key – never your name, email, or WordPress account. Credit pack purchases are processed by [Freemius](https://freemius.com); see their [Privacy Policy](https://freemius.com/privacy/) and [Terms of Service](https://freemius.com/terms/). * **No visitor content is sent.** Only image URLs and the site summary above are transmitted, and only when you explicitly generate metadata, start a bulk job, or connect via Settings. ## Screenshots [⌊Bulk generation dashboard with live progress and credit balance.⌉⌊Bulk generation dashboard with live progress and credit balance.⌉[ Bulk generation dashboard with live progress and credit balance.

Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/wilderwoods-alttext`, or install directly through the Plugins screen in WordPress. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress. 3. Visit **Settings WilderWoods AltText Settings** and click **Save Key & Connect to Cloud** to register your site and receive your 40 free credits. 4. Open your Media Library and click **Generate Alt Text** to generate metadata for any image. 5. To configure which metadata fields are generated or run a bulk generation job, visit **Media WilderWoods AltText** or **Settings WilderWoods AltText Settings**. ## FAQ ### Do I need a Google Gemini API key? No. The cloud service handles the Gemini API connection for you. ### Can I process my entire Media Library? Yes. Queue your existing Media Library for background processing, allowing large libraries to be processed even after you close your browser. ### Do my credits expire? No. Purchased credits don’t expire while the service is active. ### Can I use one credit pack across multiple sites? Yes. Use your Sync Key to share one credit balance across the WordPress sites you manage. ### What happens when I run out of credits? Generation stops with a clear message prompting you to top up. You can buy a new credit pack directly from the Settings page – packs never expire. Nothing breaks, and any bulk job in progress halts cleanly. ### Does this overwrite metadata I’ve already written? Not by default. Bulk generation only fills fields that are currently empty unless you enable **Force overwrite** in Settings. Manually clicking **Generate** or ** Regenerate** on a single image always overwrites that image because it’s an intentional action. ### Is my data sent anywhere? See the **External Services** section above for a full explanation of what is sent, where it is sent, and why. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c6828d13ea013c1de7b7e87f8149e5c9b02d2c2bad9d2573ae57c250141621ac? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[So quick and easy to use!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/so-quick-and-easy-to-use/)󠁿 [maryrose01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/maryrose01/) 28 ខែ​សីហា, 2026 1 reply I have used this plugin on a few of my clients’ websites already and wow – it’s so easy to use!
