Use Imagerr AI on One Particular Image

Auto generate on upload

You can automatically generate the alt text (and/or the meta title, caption, and description too) for all your new images when they are uploaded to your media library. You can activate this feature in your WordPress admin panel in the plugin’s settings (Imagerr AI > Settings).

Auto Generate Alt Text on Upload

Bulk generator
You will find the feature to bulk generate the alt text (and/or the meta title, caption, and description too) in your WordPress admin panel in Imagerr AI > Bulk Generator.

You can also apply this to the images that already have alt text by ticking the first checkbox at the bottom.

If you tick the second checkbox, “Replace on posts,” too, the plugin will search for each image across all post types and automatically update its alt text everywhere it is used – not just in the media library. This ensures that reused images always show the most accurate and updated alt text across your entire website. However, plase be aware of that enabling this option will increase the total time that will be needed to process all images. For example, if you want to process 5,000 images at one time, it may take even a few hours.

Note: Do not close your browser window during the bulk generation process. If you need to stop the process, click on the “STOP” button (after that it takes a couple of seconds while the process stops).

SEO keywords settings (optional)

At the bottom section of the plugin’s settings, you will find the SEO keywords settings. These settings allow you to predefine SEO keywords that you would like to have included in your generated alt texts. This can be helpful for your SEO. Please note that all these settings are optional and you may not even need them.

You can do the following:

  • Use the WordPress post or page title on which the particular image is used.
  • Use focus keywords or keyphrases from SEO plugins’ post or page settings. This works with all major SEO plugins that include RankMath, Yoast SEO, AIOSEO, SEOPress, and Squirrly.
  • Add your own custom SEO keywords that you want to use (optional, maximum 3, separated by commas).
  • Add negative keywords that you want to avoid using (optional, maximum 3, separated by commas).
