描述

Bubuku Media Library helps content and marketing teams audit, monitor and optimize images in WordPress. Track file sizes, identify missing alt text, export reports, receive email summaries and connect AI assistants through MCP.

New in version 1.3.0: Bubuku Media Library includes an MCP Server that allows compatible AI assistants and developer tools to interact with your WordPress Media Library through a secure endpoint with role-based permissions.

You can:

  • Sort the Media Library by file size to easily identify large files.
  • Filter images that don’t have alternative text (alt text).
  • Use size-based filters (for example: optimal size, medium size, large size) to prioritize which images to optimize first.
  • Run a Bulk Action in the Media Library to calculate file sizes for existing uploads.
  • Export CSV reports including file size, format (MIME type), URL, alt text, image date, post title and post URL — ideal for audits or sharing with your team.
  • See a summary of your Media Library in a dashboard widget, including how many images are heavy or missing alt text.
  • Configure weekly or monthly email reports so you can monitor the optimization status of your images without logging into WordPress.
  • Connect MCP-compatible AI assistants to your Media Library using role-based permissions and configurable abilities.

AI & MCP Integration

Bubuku Media Library includes a built-in MCP Server that allows compatible AI assistants and development tools to securely interact with your WordPress Media Library.

Available MCP abilities include:

  • Listing media library attachments.
  • Reviewing image metadata and alt text coverage.
  • Exporting media audits to CSV.
  • Accessing media library summary metrics.
  • Triggering reports and diagnostics.
  • Managing media accessibility workflows.

Each ability can be enabled or disabled individually and restricted to a minimum WordPress role. This allows you to safely connect AI assistants like Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and other MCP-compatible clients to audit images, review missing alt text, generate reports and automate media management workflows, while keeping permissions under your control.

Typical use cases include:

  • Finding images without alt text.
  • Exporting media audits for content reviews.
  • Checking image size distribution.
  • Generating accessibility reports.
  • Integrating WordPress media workflows with AI assistants.
  • Automating repetitive media library review tasks.

Quick Start

  1. From your server (SSH), move the plugin folder to the plugins directory:

    wp-content/plugins/bubuku-media-library/

  2. Activate the plugin via the WordPress admin or using WP-CLI:

    wp plugin activate bubuku-media-library

  3. (Optional) Run the bulk action in Media > Library to calculate file sizes for existing images.

Evaluate results

Recommended Tools
– Lighthouse (in Chrome DevTools) — Analyze image weight and format, as well as the use of alternative text (ALT).
– WebPageTest — Check how images affect real-world load times.
– Squoosh — Compare visual quality and file size savings when optimizing images.
– WAVE Accessibility Tool — Verify whether images are missing ALT attributes or if the alternative texts are descriptive.

Evaluation Guidelines
– Identify images without ALT text or with excessive file size before running external tests.
– After replacing large images or adding ALT text, repeat your evaluations to confirm improvements.
– Evaluate both new and existing content — not only the most recent uploads.
– Define an internal size limit (for example, 200 KB per image) and monitor it regularly.
– Keep in mind that accessibility also affects SEO and overall user experience.

  3. Log in to the WordPress admin area and navigate to the “Plugins” screen.
  4. Locate “Bubuku Media Library” in the plugins list and click “Activate” to enable the plugin.

常见问题

What does each color mean?

Green = <= 100KB (good), Orange = 100KB – 500KB (medium), Red = >= 500KB (poor).

How can I recalculate sizes after optimizing images?

Use the “Calculate file size” Bulk Action in the Media Library, or click the recalculate button on individual attachments to update the stored file size.

Can I disable the weekly reports?

Yes — go to the plugin settings page and select the report frequency: Weekly, Monthly or Disabled.

Are generated reports compatible with my language?

The plugin uses WordPress localization files. If your language is available under the languages/ directory, the texts will be displayed in that language when WordPress is configured accordingly.

How can I filter the Media Library by file size?

Use the size filter provided by the plugin in Media Library to select a predefined range or enter custom limits. You can also sort the size column to quickly find the largest or smallest files.

How can I find images that don’t have alt text?

Use the “Alt Text” filter in the Media Library to show items missing alternative text, or sort the Alt column to group empty values together for quick review.

How do I export the report to CSV?

Use the Export / Reports functionality in the plugin and click the “Export CSV” button. The generated CSV contains the following columns: ID, Image Name, Image URL, File Size, Format (MIME type), Alt Text, Image Date (Y-m-d H:i:s), Post Title, Post URL, Post SEO Title, Post SEO Description.

The SEO columns are populated automatically when one of the following SEO plugins is active: Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO (AIOSEO), SEOPress or The SEO Framework. The exported value is the raw text configured by the user (variables like %%title%% are not resolved).

Can you show an example CSV row?

Example (CSV columns separated by commas):

123,"my-image.jpg","https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/my-image.jpg","256.34 KB","image/jpeg","An example alt text","2024-01-10 12:34:56","Example Post","https://example.com/example-post/","Example Post – My Site","Short description of the example post."

Which encoding is used and how to open the file in Excel?

The plugin adds a UTF-8 BOM to the CSV for better compatibility with Excel. If Excel shows garbled characters, import the CSV using Excel’s Data From Text/CSV and choose UTF-8 encoding.

Are there any permission or security checks for export?

Yes — the export checks that the current user has the upload_files capability and verifies a nonce (bml_filter_nonce) to prevent CSRF. If the checks fail, the export is blocked.

What is the MCP Server?

The MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server allows compatible AI assistants and developer tools to securely access selected media library capabilities through a single endpoint.

Which AI tools are compatible?

Any client that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), including Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex and other compatible applications.

Can I control what AI assistants can access?

Yes. Each MCP ability can be enabled or disabled individually and you can define the minimum WordPress role required to execute it. This allows you to safely connect AI assistants while keeping permissions under your control.

¡Qué interesante!

Un plugin que le puede resultar muy interesante a mucha gente. Voy a recomendarlo para que más usuarios puedan conocerlo y utilizarlo 😉

BRUTAL

2022 年 10 月 21 日
Un descubrimiento. Es tan necesario este plugin que no lo aconsejaría sólo a los que nos dedicamos a la optimización de WordPress sino incluso a creadores de contenidos, profesionales del SEO, Marketing, etc. etc. Otra arma para mi arsenal.

Great WPO resource

2022 年 10 月 19 日
A tool that helps outline big images or those that don’t have the alt attribute. Very useful if you are improving a site’s WPO or looking after better accessibility. It does what it says, and it does it right.

Imprescindible en la biblioteca de utilidades WPO

2022 年 9 月 19 日
Una idea excelente, imprescindible en toda biblioteca de utilidades WPO para la correcta optimización de las webs. Además, tiene aún algunas posibilidades de crecimiento como mostrar en el frontend a los usuarios conectados como admin las imágenes con un outline en caso de no tener definido el alt img:not([alt]) o quizás también leer el tamaño de las imágenes y mostrar los códigos de color según su peso, etc. Como digo, una idea excelente, de un excelente programador.
