Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Frontend Image Replace works with any WordPress theme. It detects images from the media library on any frontend page and adds the hover overlay.

The original image stays in the media library. The new image is uploaded as a new attachment, and only the reference in the post content is updated.

With the Pro version, you can generate temporary shareable links. Anyone with such a link can replace images — no WordPress account needed. Links expire automatically.

No. The free version offers unlimited image replacements with full functionality. Pro adds guest access links, an activity log, and priority support.

Gutenberg (Block Editor), Classic Editor, and LiveCanvas are fully supported. The plugin updates image references regardless of how the content was created.

Yes. The site logo is automatically excluded. For any other image, add the CSS class fir-no-replace to the image or a parent element to prevent it from being replaceable.
