  • Template generator — CSV prefilled with your image IDs
  • Backup & restore — undo the last optimization in one click
  • Performance-safe limits — up to 10,000 rows per file, 5 MB max
  • Security-first — nonces, capability checks, CSV-injection protection

Who is it for?

  • WooCommerce stores with hundreds of product images
  • Photographers and bloggers improving on-page SEO
  • Any site aiming for better image accessibility
  • Agencies managing multiple client sites

CSV Format

Your CSV must contain exactly two columns (case-insensitive):

  • ID — WordPress attachment ID (numeric)
  • ALT — The new ALT text for that image

Example (international/comma):
ID,ALT
123,Handmade ceramic mug on wooden table

Example (French/semicolon):
ID;ALT
123;Mug en céramique sur table en bois

How It Works

  1. Download the CSV template from Easy Alt Import in the admin menu.
  2. Open the file in Excel/LibreOffice/Numbers or any text editor.
  3. Edit only the ALT column; keep IDs unchanged.
  4. Save as CSV (UTF-8 recommended).
  5. Upload the CSV, preview, select, and apply your changes.
  6. If needed, Undo the last optimization.
