WP Media Cleanup

Over time, a WordPress site collects many image sizes. Themes and plugins generate them automatically, and a lot of them are never shown anywhere, yet they keep taking up server storage. Cleaning them out by hand is slow and risky, because it is hard to know which files a page still relies on.

The plugin scans your posts, pages, widgets and custom fields to find images that are not in use. It then flags the size variations that can go, and you delete them in bulk or one at a time. Safety checks, confirmation prompts and recovery options sit around the process, and the dashboard shows clear scan results, so people without technical experience can run it too.

Features

• Scans content for unused images: The plugin checks posts, pages, widgets and custom fields to detect image size variations that are not actually used or displayed anywhere on your site.
• Original files stay intact: Deletion targets only unused size variations. Your original full-size images are left alone, which protects essential media while you free up disk space.
• Bulk deletion: Remove many unused image variations in one pass when you want to clear out a large amount of clutter from the media library quickly.
• One-by-one deletion: Prefer a careful approach? Delete unused images individually, so you can review each file before it is removed from your site.
• Safety checks and prompts: Built-in safeguards and confirmation prompts reduce the risk of removing something by mistake while you clean up your media library.
• Recovery of deleted images: Restore deleted images if you need them back. Recovery and backup support makes accidental deletions easy to undo without a complicated process.
• Clear dashboard results: An intuitive dashboard presents scanning results in a readable way, so non-technical users can see what was found and decide what to remove.
• Custom image size support: Image sizes added by themes or plugins are covered, so the cleanup reaches all media variants rather than only the default WordPress sizes.

Best for

• Site owners running low on server storage
• Older WordPress sites with many theme-generated image sizes
• Freelancers and agencies maintaining client media libraries
