Frequently Asked Question
metadata remains intact
Do alt text, description, and caption remain when replacing?
Yes. When replacing a file, neo Replace retains important media information such as alt text, description and caption. This is especially useful if you only want to replace an image technically or stylistically while keeping the existing SEO texts.
Optionally, when replacing you can specify whether the filename, title and slug from the newly uploaded image should also be adopted. This lets you decide flexibly whether only the image file is updated or whether the media name should also be adjusted to the new file.

Carry over metadata
Are all metadata carried over when duplicating?Yes. neo Duplicate creates a copy of the media file and carries over important media information such as title, alt text, caption, and description. The existing image sizes are also duplicated so the copy can be used directly as a standalone media entry.
After duplicating you can adjust the copy’s metadata independently from the original. This lets you use the same asset multiple times without changes to the alt text or caption automatically affecting other usages.
