Media File Renamer Pro

Media File Renamer Pro costs $299 once for 5 sites. The annual plan costs $49 a year, so the lifetime license pays for itself after 74 months.

Yes, if you look after several sites with large media libraries full of names like IMG_4711.jpg and want them fixed without touching each file. Vision AI suggests names from the image content, and the plugin updates every reference to a renamed file, which is the part that is hard to do by hand. Since the entry tier already covers several sites with updates for life, the license pays off best for site owners and agencies who use it everywhere.

It pays off less for one site, and support is included for 1 year only, so do your first bulk run soon after buying. The rename log lets you trace and roll back changes, but a backup is still wise before renaming a whole library. For larger portfolios the tiers for 20, 500 and 2,500 sites in the table lower the price per site.

The free Media File Renamer on wordpress.org runs on 40,000+ sites and has been around since 2011. It renames media files based on their title and updates the references, which already cleans up a library step by step.

Media File Renamer Pro automates the rest. Vision AI looks at the image and suggests a fitting name, the plugin can use ALT text or the title of the attached post, and file names, ALT text and titles stay in sync. Renaming works on upload or in bulk, and every change is logged so you can roll it back.

Good file names help images show up in image search, but every new upload needs one. Renaming is therefore a job that continues as long as you publish, and a yearly subscription would charge you every year for it.

The lifetime license from Meow Apps is paid once and includes updates for life. Support is limited to the first year, which is the main trade-off compared with the yearly plan.

You install the Pro plugin from your account and activate the license. Make a backup, test the AI suggestions on a few images, then switch on automatic renaming for new uploads and run the bulk rename on your existing library. The refund window is 14 days, there is no trial.
