Overview

It is increasingly important for you to make your images meet accessibility standards. Images must have alternative text (alt text) added so that the visually impaired can use screen readers to understand the purpose and context of the image displayed on the screen.

In addition to making your site more accessible, using alt text helps your site rank better in search engines. This is an added SEO benefit for marketers.

Unfortunately, as a site grows, it becomes difficult and time-consuming to edit and maintain image alt text. Fix Alt Text plugin can help you discover where alt text is needed, quickly fix issues, and even force users to input alt text as images are used throughout the site in the future.

Wonderful, does what it has to do!
by Fari·7 months ago·1 reply

I need to say that this plugin has been a game changer and such a huge help! Our company is responsible for many WP sites assigned to different users with different skill levels. We are on top of keeping Accessible sites and guarantee those to our clients. However, some of our users tend to forget Alt Text or fail to keep consistency, so the battle to re-add, find & replace, as well as just locate in general has finally been completed! This tool scans the whole site (or you can limit it), and it has been a big help in finding the same image on multiple pages and fixing, as opposed to the AI alt text plugins that only give the image/jpeg title (which is so bad). The Force Alt Text feature has been truly a blessing! Now our sites have been reporting consistently with 0 Alt Text issues! Thanks so much for this plugin!

Amazing And Really Useful Little Plugin

This is a great little plugin that does exactly what it says on the tin, and does it very well!
Fixes a very real world problem we had.
Thanks guys.

Does what it says!

Seems to do exactly what it says. I just tested it out for a client. Love that inline edit that actually updates the text in the post it was embedded. Also love that it makes the ALT text required when uploading an image (even if there are ways around it).

Great job.

very impressed!

this is an incredibly useful tool for quickly solving the issue of missing alt tags on a site. i’ve tried plenty of others and this is leaps and bounds better than anything else i’ve seen.

Just what we’ve been looking for and more!

Fix Alt Text is an essential plugin to help make our sites more accessible and the author is dedicated and very responsive to crushing “bugs” that creep in and get reported.
