WordPress Image Control: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

Leaving WordPress on its own for image management on a website with a lot of images is stupid.

===Items to Consider===

==Items to Consider==

=== Image ===

*Title

Line 14:

Line 16:

**Description is used when image is viewed via a Permalink URL, or whenever the image is used in a Page, Post, etc.

**ALT / Alternative Text is used in the Images ALT Attribute when viewed via a Permalink URL or whenever the image is used in a Page, Post, etc.

**

=== Redirection ===

* Redirect from Image Permalink URL to Fragment Location / Anchor / ID on a Page

** And

*** If no explicit Redirect is set up, then go to the Images Parent

*** OR

*** Stay on the Image's Permalink URL

=== WordPress Functionality ===

*

*Automatic "Thumbnail" (Resized Image) Generation that are automatically generated by WordPress, Themes, Plugins, etc.: Wordpress sets the SRCSET Attribute

*SEO stuff

**Canonical URLSs are only useful if an end Image / Item / etc. falls under multiple categories (IE is duplicitous) and a Search Engine needs to know which one is the default.

*Canonical URLSs are only useful if an end Image / Item / etc. falls under multiple categories (IE is duplicitous) and a Search Engine needs to know which one is the default.

=== Other Nice Additions if Possible ===

*Search Results just for Images???

*Custom CSS for Permalink URI??? - see below (Simple CSS offers custom CSS for an Image, but it doesn't show up on Permalink URI)

*Index and / or Table of Contents (for all of website & only images, so two indexes or table of contents)

=== Plugins ===

*Plugins To Manage Images and Media

**Media Library Assistant: Adds Parent Field to an image, adds some (obscure) fields to what can be associated with a Media File, Parent Info, Menu Order, Attachment Metabase (read only), and an alternate list view, Allows for additional Categories to be created

Line 56:

**Plugin that will redirect Permalink for Image to a Lightbox based on Category???

***...or redirect image to intended location instead of the Permalink URI

****Redirect: This provides a simple list of redirects. Some Plugins like Timeline Express have delayed rendering which will affect Fragment Location / Anchor scrolling

****'''Attachment Pages Redirect with Media Library Assistant''': https://wordpress.org/plugins/attachment-pages-redirect/: Redirects Permalink URI to a Page, etc (Permalink of Page, etc.)

*****One great remaining thing would be to not only redirect to the page, but also use a # to scroll to the appropriate point on the page. Since most Anchor Tags are defined by the ID Attribute or the Name Attribute, it should work.

*****A permalink redirect to an absolute URL with an Anchor Tag would be nice: https://www.lifeofthesaltonsea.org/recent-history/#apr-1962

******Smooth Scroll to Anchor: https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-smooth-scroll-links/

******Page Scroll to ID: https://wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/

******

****Yoast will do this, but it kills off it's ability to create an Image Index
