## Description

When you upload an image, Image Meta fills in attachment fields based on your settings.
You can set each of the following from the file name, IPTC/XMP caption, or leave
it blank:

 * Title
 * Caption
 * Description
 * Alt text (from title, caption, description, or blank)

Modern cameras and editors often store captions in XMP (`dc:title` / `dc:description`)
rather than classic IPTC. This plugin reads both.

Configure the plugin under Settings  Image Meta.

## Screenshots

## Installation

 1. Upload the `image-meta` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install through the
    Plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen.
 3. Go to Settings  Image Meta and choose how each field should be filled.

## FAQ

### Does this change existing images?

No. It applies when new images are uploaded (or when attachment metadata is regenerated).

### Why wasn’t my caption imported?

WordPress core only reads classic IPTC (APP13) and some EXIF fields. Many apps write
XMP instead. Image Meta reads XMP title/description as well.
