Have you ever wanted to generate hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of images with a single click of a button?
Well now you can, using ZimmWriter’s Bulk AI Image generator!
Here is what the interface looks like:
Now let me explain how to use it.
The first thing you need to enter is a list of blog post titles or URLs. You can mix and match, just make sure that everything is on its own line.
If you do decide to input URLs, then be aware that ZimmWriter will visit the URL and summarize the content on the webpage. As a default, ZimmWriter uses your own IP address to do this but sometimes the webpage tries to block you. In that case, you’ll need to link up a ScrapeOwl API into ZimmWriter.
In this box, you’ll want to type in your prompt.
NOW THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT SO I’M GOING TO YELL IT AND USE ALL CAPS…
The prompt you type into this box is NOT a prompt telling the AI to generate an image.
Instead, the prompt you type in this box should tell the AI to create ANOTHER prompt that we will then use to generate the image.
Here is an example of a prompt you could put in that box:
Write a prompt to generate an image, without text, for a blog post about: {title} on the subtopic of {subheading}. Use detailed visual language that is specific. No text or words in the image. Make the prompt less than 35 words.
Notice how we’re not telling the AI to generate an image, but instead telling it to generate a prompt?
Let me explain it in steps because that might help:
So just to recap. If you enter the prompt telling the AI to generate an image, then it will likely fail. You need to tell it to generate a prompt.
In the prompt above, and the “default” prompt (found in the menu dropdown titled Load Possible Existing Saved Prompt) has two placeholders in it.
The first placeholder is {title} and the second placeholder is {subheading}.
You have to include {title} in your prompt as ZimmWriter will dynamically replace it with the title for your input behind the scenes.
You should also include {subheading} somewhere in the prompt as ZimmWriter will generate some key points for the title or URL it summarizes and use those to help give the images variety. If you leave {subheading} out, then many of your images will appear similar.
Use the dropdown to load the default prompt, or any other existing saved prompts you might have created.
You can save new prompts in the Database A by going to the main ZimmWriter options menu and clicking on “Set AI Image Prompt”. You can also read more about creating AI image prompts.
You can save new prompts in the Database B and C by clicking on the P options next to an AI Image Model dropdown for featured images or subheading images in the Bulk Writer. Learn more about it here in our easy to read guide.
You can also choose the model which ZimmWriter uses to take your prompt and generate the second prompt (discussed above).
You need to specify an image model to generate your AI images. You can read more about each of the models in our AI image model guide.
I also have a handy video about creating AI images inside of ZimmWriter.
Select the number of images you want for each title and/or URL.
The limit is 15, but you can get more if you want, by simply copy-pasting the title or URL multiple times in the input box.
The default inside of ZimmWriter is to compress AI images. So when the images are uploaded to WordPress, the file size is very small and the quality is still very high.
But I disabled the default compression for the Bulk Image Generator and now allow you to manually enable it. Usually, a non-compressed image will be 2-4mb while a compressed image is about 100kb.
