ALT generator PrestaShop

The module works with PrestaShop 1.7.8 and newer, including 8.x and 9.x, on PHP 7.4+. It generates one description at a time or a selected batch, saves it as the image caption in the chosen language and synchronises your manual corrections with DockAccess.

What it covers

Product images. Banners, the logo, category images and backgrounds need separate care. PrestaShop limits a caption to 128 characters, and the module removes the characters < > = { }, which that field does not accept.

Connection

You install the module from its ZIP file in Modules → Module Manager → Upload a module. On the Connection tab you give the site token and the e-mail address and password of your DockAccess account; on the Generation tab the context (up to 500 characters) and the tone.

Generating

Open Catalog → AI Alt Generator and pick the store language. Search for a product or filter the images without a description, generate one and check it in the caption field. When it looks right, select more images and start the batch; the results are saved one by one. Each language has its own caption, so repeat it for the other languages.

Limits

The free plan describes 10 images a day on one site. Paid plans count images a month: Starter 500, Pro 2,000 and Agency 20,000. The limit counts the images described in your DockAccess account and by every integration together.

Good alt texts

Check a generated description before you publish it, especially names, numbers and the text visible in the picture. A decorative image should have an empty alt, and an image that is the only content of a link describes where the link goes.

Data

To write a description, the AI service gets the image, the language and the context and tone you set.
