The image description Meta field is not populating the description of products. I did below and it still does not show. Although that seems to refer to caption and not description of the images.
You gave this solution but it does not work for me: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/image-description-as-post-content/
In bip-dropzone.php
line 76 replace this:
$postContent = ""
with this:
$img_meta = wp_get_attachment_metadata( $attachment_id );
$postContent = $img_meta['image_meta']['caption'];Wordfence says your plugin is abandoned. Is this true?
The Plugin “Bulk Images to Posts” appears to be abandoned (updated February 28, 2019, tested to WP ).
Type: Plugin Abandoned
Plugin Name: Bulk Images to Posts
Current Plugin Version: 3.6.6.3
Last Updated: February 28, 2019
Details: It was last updated 2 years 11 months ago and tested up to WordPress . Plugins can be removed from www.ads-software.com for various reasons. This can include benign issues like a plugin author discontinuing development or moving the plugin distribution to their own site, but some might also be due to security issues. In any case, future updates may or may not be available, so it is worth investigating the cause and deciding whether to temporarily or permanently replace or remove the plugin. Get more information.
There’s no “full size” image option in the settings and the plugin lets you choose from all registered “intermediate” image sizes.
The easy workaround is to edit the plugin’s bip-settings.php so that:
<?php
$imageSizes = get_intermediate_image_sizes(); ?>
becomes:
<?php
$imageSizes = get_intermediate_image_sizes();
$imageSizes[] = ‘full’;?>
This makes the “full” size option available in the settings tab.

why you not update it plz update this plugin i like it but i face some issue when i upload bulk images then i get error some images not posted.
i am waiting for your new update.
thanks
Using the latest version of the plugin (3.6.6.3).
I’m having an issue when there are two (or more) users logged into their own accounts, changing the tags on one set of images updates the tags on the other users images. I’m wondering if there’s a way to encapsulate the images that each user is uploading/updating so that it doesn’t affect other sessions.
]]>Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to create a post from images already located in the media library? Or does it only work if you are uploading new images to the library?
Thanks!
Hello,
Thank you for making this plugin. I want to know if there’s any chance of adding new features in the future, the most important I’m thinking about being the possibility to import IPTC keywords to tags.
Thank you
]]>Please, I’d like to know why there are four sizes for the same image – the original, 90×90, 240×300 and 272×340. What I need, actually is an integration with the PRONTO theme, in which the first page should show only 90×90 thumbnails without text or image name (just the link to the post).
I would appreciate greatly for any input related to this, since I am a novice and not that great in learning fast how to customize all those PHP/CSS/etc file contents.

I changed my upload folder then plugin started to not work. In admin panel it seems uploaded and published but it didn’t. How do I solve this problem?

]]>I wanted my post to be titled the date the picture was taken and found exiftool.
This allowed me to add/change the title in the metadata, but it does not show up as the picture title. Viewing the properties with Windows Photo Viewer it shows the title I want
and if I save it from Windows Photo Viewer, it will show up as the title for Bulk Images to Posts? Setting the image title with exiftool, returns the correct title when viewing with exiftool, Windows Photo Viewer but not Bulk Images to Posts?
Setting the title with Windows Photo Viewer, returns the correct title when viewing with exiftool, Windows Photo Viewer AND Bulk Images to Posts?
I’ve will have to many photos to re-title using Windows Photo Viewer, so am I doing something wrong or is this a bug with Bulk Images to Posts?
Thanks…

Is there any way to delete the title completely? in which case it would just be a post image without a title

Thanks
]]>Hi! I’ve just came across your plugin, and it seems perfect for the task. Thank you!
However, there was one little and obscure thing missing for me, it’s setting the EXIF time and date as post time and date. I barely know how to code, but the fix is quite easy.
I added the following lines to (bip-dropzone.php):
if ( function_exists( 'exif_read_data' ) ) {
$exif = exif_read_data( $attachment->guid );
}and then added to the $post_information array the following:
'post_date' => $exif['DateTimeOriginal'],
As for now, everything works smoothly. I think, if somebody else would like to see this little feature, it would be nice to see it added in the future versions, with a checkbox in the settings to turn it on or off.
P.S. I also removed alt="'. $thetitle .'" from the image tag, because i’m changing the names after posting anyway. Would be nice to see this done with a checkbox in the setting too.
P.P.S. For some reason, in the settings I see two “draft” options for post status and two “post” options in the post type. This has nothing to do with the exif fix, and it doesn’t affect a performance at all. I think this most probably has something to do with the way my wordpress website is set up instead of something with the plugin, but it’s nevertheless odd.
]]>Hello, The plugin works perfectly, but is there any way I can put image source also ?
Just like the screenshot from 1 site I found.
Hello,
Thanks for creating a very useful plugin!
I am creating portfolio galleries using your plugin to bulk upload, create portfolio item posts, set categories and set featured images.
It works great, except one thing: The post IDs generated are out of order sometimes.
My theme has a portfolio feature that sorts by ID, so some items are out of order.
For example:
image_001 = ID 326
image_002 = ID 327
image_003 = ID 329
image_004 = ID 328
I suppose Bulk Images to Posts creates the ID after processing the images for upload? When I bulk upload sometimes the processing finishes out of order maybe?
These are just my guesses, but is there anything I can do to ensure the order is correct for future batches? I have to create several portfolio pages like this.
Thanks!
Shawn
Hi,
first of all thank you for your work. I came across an issue using this plugin. When I want to use the image meta title as the post title, it is saved as “Untitled” (I double checked the exif title to be sure).
I looked into the code and tried the following in includes/bip-zone.php (from line 25 to line 50):
` $attachment_id = media_handle_upload( ‘bipImage’, 0 );
$attachment = get_post( $attachment_id );
$uploadTitleType = get_option(‘bip_image_title’);
if ( $uploadTitleType == 0) {
$theoriginaltitle = basename( get_attached_file( $attachment_id ) );
$titleWithoutExtension = substr($theoriginaltitle, 0, strpos($theoriginaltitle, “.”));
$thetitle = str_replace(“-“,” “,$titleWithoutExtension);
} else {
$theoriginaltitle = get_the_title($attachment_id); // changed $attachment->post_title to get_the_title($attachment_id);
$thetitle = $theoriginaltitle;
// Check to see if no title set
if ( empty($theoriginaltitle)) {
$theoriginaltitle = basename( get_attached_file( $attachment_id ) );
$titleWithoutExtension = substr($theoriginaltitle, 0, strpos($theoriginaltitle, “.”));
$thetitle = str_replace(“-“,” “,$titleWithoutExtension);
}
}
$uploadPostType = get_option(‘bip_post_type’);
$uploadPostStatus = get_option(‘bip_post_status’);
$uploadTaxonomy = get_option(‘bip_taxonomy’);
$uploadTerms = get_option(‘bip_terms’);
$uploadImageContent = get_option(‘bip_image_content’);
$uploadImageContentSize = get_option(‘bip_image_content_size’);`
Basically, I just changed some stuff so the code won’t run in replacement if we want to use the exif title of the file (no str_replace and substr in that case) and used get_the_title($attachment_id); instead of $attachment->post_title (maybe something’s going wrong getting the attachment (but the attachment ID is well returned).
You may think that looks like a pull request, and well, it is, but I don’t know how to do it properly, but implementing this change in the SVN repo would would be really helpful.
Best regards,
Enguerran
hi there
great plugin appreciated that
may i know is there a way to make the image posted to have a hyper link automatically?
also, is there a way to have default text or prefilled words on the post as well? thx
]]>I am attempting to assign posts to a sub category and both the category and the parent category are being assigned. This is due to the parent category’s checkbox being selected. However, I am unable to deselect a parent category without it also deselecting the children.

- Child Category 1 (ID 4)
--Child Child Category 1 (ID 5)

]]>Is there any way to use images that are already in my library, instead of having to upload fresh images?
I use Media Library Assistant and an image renaming plugin when I upload all of my images. These plugins let me rapidly turn dozens of poorly named images (DSC1001.jpg) into descriptive names that have titles, alt text, categories and tags assigned.
Your plugin is a GREAT way to use images to create posts, but it seems I can only use the plugin for NEW image uploads. When I use it, I have to do all of the renaming, categorizing and tagging manually, which takes a long time when you’re adjusting dozens of images at a time that all have unique combinations of tags and categories. This problem would be solved immediately if I could select images that already exist within the Media Library and create posts from them (and would save users like me a TON of time).
If your plugin does not currently allow for the use of images that are already in the wordpress media library, is that a piece of functionality you could include for a future update?
Thanks for your work on an awesome plugin!
]]>I installed this plugin and it did great in uploading images however it changed the image titles or post titles all by itself to some numbers or numeric value ….
How to make this not happen ..?? I want my images names as the post titles but it gives some numbers (numeric values) to all images thereby changing post titles to numbers instead of Images titles or names.
Please advice.
Thanks.
Hey!
Love the plugin. Though I encountered a few problems.
1. Could it be possible to also implement the image (if wanted) to the post, like https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/post-a-pic/ does?
2. It seems like checking the category when using https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/enhanced-media-library/ won’t work. It won’t be assigned to it.
3. Sometimes the plugin seems to use the photo it’s title set in settings (OLYMPUS CAMERA) as post title instead of the name of the file.
