Wisnoob Media Cleanup

Description

Wisnoob Media Cleanup scans your whole site to work out which media files are actually used, and where. Instead of a bare “unused” label, every file shows the pages, products, widgets and settings that reference it, with a Find on page button that opens the page, scrolls to the image and highlights it.

Please back up your site before deleting anything. Deleted files cannot be recovered.

What it scans

• Post, page and product content and excerpts (any post type), including block attributes, wp-image-123 classes and gallery shortcodes
• Featured images and WooCommerce product galleries
• Custom fields, including ACF image and gallery fields
• Elementor page data
• WooCommerce product category thumbnails and other term images
• Widgets (classic and block), menus, Customizer settings, site logo and site icon
• Block theme templates, template parts and global styles
• Additional CSS
• User profile images

Safety first

• Scans run in small steps, so large libraries never time out, and deleting stays disabled until a scan has fully finished.
• Files the scan found in use are never deleted by “Delete All Unused”.
• Right before deleting, Wisnoob Media Cleanup re-checks content edited since the scan, so an image you just added to a page is skipped.
• Every delete asks for confirmation.

Duplicate finder

The Duplicates tab finds:

• Exact duplicates: byte-identical files uploaded more than once
• Scale variants: icon.png, icon@2x.png, icon-3x.png
• Visual duplicates: the same picture in a different size, format or with small edits

Each file shows whether it is used, so you can keep the one your pages rely on.

Wisnoob Media Cleanup Pro

Want an undo? Wisnoob Media Cleanup Pro is an optional paid add-on:

• Quarantine instead of permanent delete: removed files are kept for 30 days and can be restored with one click.
• Merge duplicates: keep one copy and every page, featured image and gallery that used the others is updated automatically.

Everything described above works without it.

What it can’t see

Files referenced only from theme or plugin PHP code, hard-coded in theme CSS files, or linked from other websites are not detected. Check the “Find on page” result before deleting anything you are unsure about.
