Currently, this plugin has CSS that applies to more site admin pages than one would expect it to be loaded on while also then having CSS selectors which aren’t unique to this plugin.

As a result, I’m seeing the View Details for a plugin as showing the main content area below the right sidebar due to the meow-admin.css being loaded while it then applying clear:both; to .section (among other styles; this one just causing a noticeable bug.)

See screenshot: https://cloudup.com/cVoVWHBXLRu

Ideally, this CSS would only be loaded on the pages associated with this plugin’s functionality (ex. the Meow Apps settings page[s], media library, individual media item detail page, and possibly the media item lightbox [then leaving the View Details lightbox for plugins & all other views unaffected by this plugin.])

Also, it really should have CSS that’s scoped a bit further to avoid conflicts with anything else (ex. something like .section by itself really has it so other elements from other plugins and even WordPress itself can be affected unintentionally.) Even if it’s loading on the right page, there might be some elements this shouldn’t bother adjusting or it should be scoped to only adjust its own stuff.

It’s a minor bug, but it sure would be a nice one to see updated to clean things up. Also, it seems like something that should have a rather straightforward & hopefully quick fix (heck, either of those items above would likely fix it sufficiently, but both would be the more thorough improvement to things.)

Hi,
I have to edit a lot of ALT attributes in media files to make them SEO friendly.
My research found your “Media Alt Renamer” plugin for WordPress.
Wordpress said it hasn’t been tested with the last three major updates.
I found a link “https://apps.meow.fr/media-alt-renamer/” in the description, but it seems that this link is is no longer available.
I didn’t find the plugin on your website so I think you stopped development. Am I right with that?
Do you think I can use it on WordPress 5.7.2? If so, it will be very helpful.
Since the link above points to a domain in France, I think the plugin is GDPR compliant. Can you please confirm that?
Thanks in advance
best regards
Henner

Hello friend, your plugin looks interesting, but I want to ask you, is it not possible to change the name during the upload of the file? I want all the images that are loaded to have the name of my website … can it?

or if possible, you could tell me how to do it or where I can do it … thanks

Hi there! Thanks for the plugin, this is the functionality I am looking for! I have installed and activated the plugin, also tried using it but did not get any result.
The description sounds like the plugin should update all image occurences in all posts with the new ALT text, right? I have an image in one post, it looks like this:

In the media library, in the list view I enter another alt text for th eimage and click on the appearing ‘update’ button. It does something and then I look at the page sources – the alt text does not change there and keeps being “Old alt text”.

Did I get anything wrong? Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Viktor

Thanks for the Media Alt Renamer plugin, it helps me!

Two feedbacks that I hope are helpful:

1) Typing is going really slowly in the Alt renamer field. Works fine but often I try to backspace or something and nothing happens at first then it starts to back up and erase everything slowly. If I type fast, nothing shows at first then the letters start to show up one by one. Does that makes sense? I’m using WordPress 4.7.2 on a staging instance of my site on hosting by SiteGround. If there are any details I can provide just say what would be useful

2) If there’s any way to make the Alt renamer field taller, that would be helpful. On my laptop the text gets cut off, and since everything in that field moves slow, it difficult to use the arrow keys to make the rest of the alt text show up. Making it a couple lines high an having the text wrap would be useful!

Thanks again!

Just in case my answer in the review section gets deleted I’ll write it here as well (with a little editing).

I would love to have an export/import function in the media library that would allow a user to export item titles from the media library (IDs as well in case the filenames need to be edited as well) in a csv file, set custom image titles and alt text (different from each other) externally in a spreadsheet and the import it back into the media library.
Having the image IDs in the first column and file names in the second column, it would be easy to do things such as split and concatenate cells (and any other functions) to use the words in the file name in order to create unique (and different from each other) image titles and alt text and then drag-copy the formulas from the first row down to the last one.
When completed, the exported csv file could be imported back into the wordpress media library and thus save hours of work trying to edit each image’s meta data individually.

If the price would be acceptable I’d gladly pay for such a plugin and I’m sure I’m not the only one having to fill out or edit countless (hundreds) of images, especially in an ecommerce situation.

Hello, interesting extension and I will be happy to see an option to rename ALT in the posts.
