Image Name as Instagram ID
When saving the images to the media library the filename will be the caption. However, by checking this box it will save the images with the Instagram image ID as the filename e.g. c6077c14fe0a11e2b55e22000a9f09fb_7.jpg
. This avoids any issues with non standard characters in the filename which can lead to the images not being displayed.
Add Caption to Saved Images
When saving images to the media library this will add the “Caption” based on the above text allowing tags (eg. %%caption%%
or %%caption-no-tags%%
). Also runs through a filter igp_image_caption
