Update ALT Text values problem

    Hi,
    Thank you for developing this great plugin.
    I needed to update my ALT Text values as @scubarob from this topic.
    I followed your instructions and it worked on my test site after I installed and tried “Insert Fixit Tools”.
    Unfortunately it didn’t work on my main website. (Both sites WP 5.0.3 installed.)

    I tried “All Posts+Attachments” and also “First/Last ID”s.
    In both cases, Insert Fixit Tools gives no error but it doesn’t update anything.
    Here is a screen shot
    Also “ALT from Item matched” posts/pages count is not right. It matches only a small amount of posts/attachments.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the positive feedback and for your question. I want to make sure I understand what you are trying to do. It looks like you are trying to use the “ALT From Item” tool to copy the ALT Text value from Media Library items to posts/pages that have the items inserted in their content; is that right?

    I cannot access the screen shot you linked to in your post; I get a “403 Forbidden” response.

    Can you post a link to one or more of the posts/pages with embedded images you’d like to update? If a link isn’t possible you could post an example of the raw content; use the “Code Editor” in WordPress 5.x or the “Text” view of the classic editor to get something that looks like:

    [caption id="attachment_5716" align="alignleft" width="150"]<a href="http://l.mladev/this-one-ok/"><img width="150" height="150" class="size-thumbnail wp-image-5716" alt="impression pigmentaire sur papier fine art -" src="http://l.mladev/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/this-one-ok-150x150.jpg"></a> funambule sur fond de ciel orangé[/caption]

    It’s possible that the inserts on your main site have a different format than those on your test site. Any additional details you can provide will be helpful. Thanks!

    It has been a month since my last post in this topic. I hope you have been able to resolve the ALT Text issue.

    I am marking this topic resolved, but please update it if there’s anything else I can do regarding your issue.
