Getting Started

Four steps to a fully-optimized media library:

  1. 1

    Open the plugin

    After activation, go to Media → Alt Optimizer in your WordPress dashboard.

  2. 2

    Configure Settings

    Set your Site Context (e.g. "Perfume Store"), Brand Name, and Focus Keyword under Settings → Alt Optimizer.

  3. 3

    Create your first rule

    Build an IF/THEN rule in the Settings page. Example: IF filename contains "perfume" THEN ALT: {clean_filename} - Premium Perfume | {brand_name}

  4. 4

    Run bulk optimization

    Head to Bulk Optimize and process your whole library — safely rollbackable if you change your mind.

Health Score

A 0–100 rating for your entire media library.

ScoreColorStatus
80–100🟢 GreenExcellent
50–79🟡 YellowGood
0–49🔴 RedNeeds attention

Scoring factors

  • ALT presence (40%) — % of images with ALT text
  • Text length (25%) — optimal 50–125 characters
  • Keyword relevance (20%) — focus keyword present
  • Descriptive quality (15%) — natural, SEO-friendly wording

Smart Rules EnginePro

Automate ALT generation with IF/THEN logic.

IF filename contains "keyword"
THEN ALT: {clean_filename} - Your Text | {brand_name}

Available conditions

  • filename contains "text" — substring match
  • filename starts with "text" — prefix match
  • filename ends with "text" — suffix match
Watch out: when listing multiple keywords, do NOT add spaces after commas. Correct: "perfume,oil,attar" — incorrect: "perfume, oil, attar".

Rule features

  • Drag & drop ordering — arrange rules by priority
  • On/off toggle — pause a rule without deleting it
  • Test button — preview output before saving
  • Export / import — backup rules as JSON

Dynamic TagsPro

Placeholders you can drop into any ALT template.

TagDescriptionExample
{filename}Original filename (no extension)baccrat-rough-540
{clean_filename}Human-readable filenameBaccrat Rough Perfume Oil
{site_context}Website context from settingsPerfume Store
{brand_name}Brand name from settingsScentlor
{site_name}WordPress site titleMy Blog
{date}Current date2026-07-24
{year}Current year2026
Template example: {clean_filename} - Premium Product | {brand_name}
Output: "Baccrat Rough Perfume Oil - Premium Product | Scentlor"

Bulk ActionsPro

Process the entire media library in a single run.

Troubleshooting

Rules not applying▼

Fix: confirm {site_context} and {brand_name} are set on the Settings page.
Bulk processing is slow or times out▼
Cause: server resource limits.
Fix: process in smaller batches and raise the PHP memory limit to 256 MB.

FAQ

How do I backup my rules?▼
Open Settings → Alt Optimizer, scroll to the Rules section and click Export Rules. You'll get a JSON file with every rule.
Does it work with page builders?▼
Yes — Smart Alt Optimizer Pro works with Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder and every major page builder.
Is it WooCommerce compatible?▼
Absolutely. WooCommerce stores are the sweet spot — the Uniqueness Guardian gives each product variant a distinct ALT so every image ranks for something different.

Yes. Every bulk batch is stored so you can undo the whole batch with one click from the Bulk Optimizer page.
