Clear Media Title On Upload

Clears the media title field on upload, instead of setting it to the slugified filename.

Description

When you upload media to WordPress, the title field is automatically set to a slugified version of the filename. This often results in messy, unoptimized titles like “IMG-20240115-photo-final-v2” appearing in gallery captions, alt tags, or title attributes.

This plugin clears the title field for newly uploaded media, ensuring that if a title is displayed anywhere, it’s one you’ve intentionally set yourself.

Features

  • Automatically clears the title field for new media uploads
  • Bulk action to clear titles on existing media library items
  • Lightweight with no settings page required
  • Developer-friendly with filters
