AutoAltify

Auto-generate missing ALT text for WordPress image attachments with multiple generation modes, bulk operations, and developer hooks.

Jesper van Engelen

<p><strong>Bulk Actions: Select All</strong> adds an option to the posts and taxonomy terms overviews in the WordPress Admin to select “All Entries”. By default, WordPress only allows you to select the posts/terms on the current page.</p>
<h4>Supported content types</h4>
<p>The plugin works for posts, pages and custom post types. Furthermore, it supports categories, tags and custom taxonomies. At this point, it doesn’t support comments and other object types besides post types and taxonomies.</p>


Bulk Actions Select All


Thank you for what you've created 🙏



All seems to be working fine in the latest version at WordPress, at the time of writing, but please do keep updated to show support for the latest.


Should be a core feature

Adds an option to the admin posts and terms overview pages to select all items (instead of just the ones on the current page) to apply bulk actions.
