What it does
When readers pin an image from your site, Pinterest pulls whatever text and image it can find, and the result is often a blank or awkward pin. Tasty Pins gives you control over that. You can write the description that travels with each pin, set image titles and alt tags, and pick a default pin image for every post or page so the right picture gets shared.
The plugin works from your WordPress dashboard, so Pinterest settings sit alongside the rest of your content. It handles hidden Pinterest descriptions that stay off the visible page, supports metadata for Rich Pins, and works with Gutenberg and Elementor. Pins settings can be restricted to administrators, which helps on sites with several authors or editors.
Best for
- Food, recipe and lifestyle blogs that get Pinterest traffic
- Bloggers who want control over how their pins look
- Agencies managing content sites with several authors

Control over pinnable images
Decide which images visitors can pin and choose a default pin image for each post or page.

Can I choose which image gets pinned from a post?
Yes. You can set a default pin image for each post or page and decide which images on the page are allowed to be pinned, so visitors share the picture you intended.
Does Tasty Pins work with Elementor and the block editor?
The plugin is compatible with Gutenberg and Elementor. It also handles pin metadata for block editor Image blocks, so you can keep using your usual editing tools.
Can I stop editors and authors from changing pin settings?
