About Kontrastkopf AI Transparency Markers
From the official readme · v1.0.9Description
Kontrastkopf AI Transparency Markers adds visible, accessible labels to images, posts, and pages. It bundles the official EU icon assets locally and does not require a cloud service.
Features:
- automatically label newly uploaded images when their filename contains the configured
.kisegment - manually choose a status in the Media Library and content editor
- add image overlays to common WordPress image output
- show a written content notice below the main heading, with a safe fallback before the content
- choose an official EU color variant, a theme color, or a brand color
- preview the result and receive basic visibility warnings in the settings screen
- provide screen-reader text and machine-readable
data-ai-contentattributes - no telemetry, no external runtime requests, and no automatic AI detection
The plugin is a labeling tool, not legal advice. It does not guarantee compliance with any law or regulation.
The included EU icon files are stored in the plugin and are not downloaded at runtime. Their source and checksums are documented inside the plugin under docs/EU-ASSETS.md.
External services
This plugin does not connect to or depend on any external service. All icon, stylesheet, and script files used at runtime are bundled locally. WordPress.org supplies translations through its standard language-pack system.
Installation
- Upload the plugin ZIP through Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin.
- Activate Kontrastkopf AI Transparency Markers.
- Open Settings > AI Transparency.
- Configure the display and label content manually, or upload a new image whose filename contains
.ki.
Frequently asked questions
Does the plugin automatically detect AI-generated content?
No. It does not analyze images or text. A label is set only through the configured filename segment on a new image upload or through a manual selection.
Which filenames are detected?
The default marker .ki must form a complete dot-separated segment. For example, image.ki.jpg and IMAGE.KI.WEBP are detected, while monki.jpg is not.
Is the label embedded when someone downloads the image?
No. Version 1 displays an HTML/CSS overlay on the website and does not modify the original media file.
Does the plugin send data to third parties?
No. The plugin makes no external requests at runtime.
Are theme and brand colors official EU color variants?
No. Only black, white, 50% black, and 50% white are bundled official variants. Theme and brand modes retain the icon geometry but are clearly identified as derived color variants in the settings.
What happens to plugin data after deactivation or deletion?
Deactivation keeps settings and content statuses. Uninstall keeps them by default as well. You can explicitly enable complete data removal in the plugin settings before uninstalling.
