# Translate Images, Alt Texts, and Media Titles

When you create a multilingual WordPress website using Polylang, you may also need to translate image titles, alt text, captions, and descriptions into other languages.

**AutoPoly – AI Translation for Polylang** helps automate this process with its **Media translation** setting. When enabled, AutoPoly translates supported media text along with your page and post content. It can also remap in-content media to language-specific attachments when Polylang media support is enabled.

> **Note:** To translate media text using AutoPoly, make sure the Media module is activated under **Languages > Settings** in Polylang.

Follow the steps below to enable media translation and translate your media content automatically:
