Image and Media Byline Credits
We are blessed with free resources like plugins, apps, images, audio and video. Content creators give their time, skills and love to provide us with their creations. Show your appreciation by giving due credit and a link back to the provider, this could be to their donate page, website or hosted page.
This simple and flexible plugin makes it easy for you to add a byline credit to your images and other media. You can do the following:
- Add a byline credit field when uploading media.
- Automatically display the byline credit under featured images
- Automatically display the byline credit under images added with the Gutenberg image block.
- Include an optional link to the web page of the content owner or creator.
- Add freeform byline credit via a shortcode e.g.
[byline]Picture by Green Ant Media[/byline]for more complex attribution or for a variety of media types. - Use a list of users with a specified role or a simple list to autocomplete the names on the Byline field.
- Easily apply your own styles to the byline credit.
