 * Hey garytaylor9,
 * I can’t help you with this problem directly, but I’ve developed a similar plugin
   like this and it’s working fine and more important: it is actively maintained.
 * You can check it here: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/pb-seo-friendly-images/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pb-seo-friendly-images/)
 * best regards
    Pascal
