What alt text is for, what good alt text looks like, why most libraries are missing it, and how to generate it for existing images and new uploads with your own AI key at a fraction of a cent each.
Generation and manual edits now report a failure when the alt text is not actually saved, and an empty AI reply is no longer counted as a success. ## What's fixed in 1.0.10 - **A failed save is reported as a failure.** If WordPress refuses to write the alt text (a meta-caching or access-control plugin, or a database error), single and bulk generation no longer show "updated" for an image that still has no alt text. The bulk counter records it as failed, and the image keeps its place in the "without alt text" list. - **Empty AI replies are errors, not results.** When a provider returns a 200 response with no description (a refusal, a safety block or an unexpected response shape), the image is reported as failed instead of being saved with empty alt text and counted as done. This applies to OpenAI, Anthropic Claude and Google Gemini. - **Manual updates report save failures.** The plugin's manual alt-text update endpoint now returns an error when the save does not go through, instead of "Alt text updated!". - **Backslashes survive the save.** Alt text containing a backslash (a file path, say) is now stored exactly as generated or typed. Previously the backslash was stripped on the way into the database. - **Non-JSON provider responses are handled.** A 200 response whose body is not JSON (an HTML page from a proxy or gateway, or an empty body) now reports a clear error for that image instead of stopping generation with a fatal error. - **No fatal error on an unrecognised provider setting.** Generation now returns a clear error if the configured provider is not one of the supported three. - **Alt text is confirmed in the media library before it counts as saved.** A plugin or filter can intercept the save and report success without storing anything, so a run could report images updated while the alt text fields stayed empty (with the AI tokens already spent). The stored value is now read back and compared every time, for both bulk generation and editing a single image. No settings, data or behaviour changes otherwise.
