Intelligently optimize image metadata - titles, alt text, and descriptions using your site identity. 100% Free & Unlimited.

== Description ==

Smart Alt Image Meta automatically optimizes your image metadata including titles, alt text, and descriptions. It intelligently combines your site name with cleaned filenames to create consistent, SEO-friendly metadata for all your images.

**How It Works:**
Your site name + cleaned filename = Perfect metadata

**Examples:**
- Site Name: "My Awesome Blog"
- Image Name: "IMG_123.jpg" → "My Awesome Blog IMG"

**🔥 Bulk Processing - 500+ Images in One Click!**
Process your entire media library instantly. Whether you have 50 or 5000 images, the plugin handles them all in batches of 50 to prevent server timeout, with a real-time progress bar showing exactly what's happening.

**What Gets Removed:**
- 🔢 **Numbers** - "IMG_123.jpg" becomes "IMG"
- ➖ **Special Characters** - "my-image-123.jpg" becomes "My Image"
- 🌀 **Underscores and Dashes** - "product_photo-001.jpg" becomes "Product Photo"

* 🖼️ **Image Titles** - Clean, descriptive titles
* 📝 **Alt Text** - SEO-friendly alt attributes  
* 📄 **Descriptions** - Consistent image descriptions

Using your site name and cleaned filenames, it creates consistent, SEO-optimized metadata for all your images.
