Media Cleaner: Clean your WordPress!

Popis

Media Cleaner is a powerful plugin that helps you clean up your WordPress media library by deleting unused media entries and files, as well as fixing broken entries. With an internal trash feature, you can preview and confirm changes before permanently deleting anything. Plus, Media Cleaner uses smart analysis to ensure compatibility with specific plugins and themes.

Use it alongside Database Cleaner for the ultimate clean-up experience.

Media Cleaner is like a ninja assassin for your Media Library – it’ll stealthily take out all the unnecessary media and broken entries that are cluttering up the place. Just make sure you have a solid backup plan in place before you let this bad boy loose.

COMPATIBILITY

This plugin is compatible with all media types, including retina and WebP versions. It has been tested on a wide range of WordPress versions, including the latest version with Gutenberg, as well as on various themes with a large community of users. It also supports WooCommerce. For users with more complex plugins for handling website content, the Pro version may be necessary for optimal compatibility. We are constantly working to increase compatibility with other plugins.

PRO VERSION

Media Cleaner Pro adds extra features to the free version of Media Cleaner:

  • Filesystem Analysis: Scans your physical /uploads directory and matches it against the Media Library.
  • Extra support for complex plugins, such as ACF, Metabox, Divi Builder, Fusion Builder (Avada), WPBakery Page Builder, Visual Composer, Elementor, Beaver Builder, Brizy Builder, Oxygen Builder, Slider Revolution, Justified Image Grid, Avia Framework, and many more!
  • Live Site Scan: Analyzes the online version of your website, potentially improving accuracy in some cases.
  • WP-CLI support: Allows you to run the plugin at a higher speed or automatically with direct server access (via SSH).

It is very useful in removing unused media. Normally it takes hours to remove media I use, and in many cases I either deleted something that is in use, or it happen that I did not catch all unused media. With this plugin, these unused media is placed in my deleted folder, which I can delete later or restore if I need it later. However, it would be helpful if you can place a function where unused media is placed in a bacup folder instead of placing it in the deleted folder.

It worked great!It did fail with some images from a custom carousel, but that is expected – how the plugin can know how some random carousel stores the data about the images, and there are thousands of carousels.. Just re-uploaded the images back and that’s it – all clean and working!

I have a hobby site that been running on WordPress for 10 years. Over time I’ve had multiple themes and plugins that have been ditched as WordPress evolved. I use two of Jordy’s tools to clean up the site:Meow Media Cleaner and Meow Database Cleaner. Both have allowed me to remove years of crud that have built up over time. Both are VERY powerful tools. Don’t take short-cuts. Read the tutorials. MOST IMPORTANT take (regular) back-up in case you delete something that is important and you need to roll-back. Having made the changes its also important to scroll though your site t discover if by accident you removed something that is important. My mantra in deleting – even if its suggested as something to be removed, If I don’t recognise it – I do not to delete and review it on the second or third pass.

As a freelance web developer, I’ve used Media Cleaner on several client WordPress sites to help optimize their media libraries. Overall, it’s an extremely useful plugin that can save a ton of storage space and improve site performance. The scanning algorithm is quite good at detecting truly unused media files. I love how it checks not just posts and pages, but also widget areas, menus, and theme files. The ability to filter results and perform test runs before deleting anything permanently is also great. However, I do have to caution users to be very careful with this plugin. On one occasion, it flagged some images as unused that were actually dynamically loaded via a custom plugin. Luckily I caught this during the preview stage. So while Media Cleaner is powerful, you need to have a solid understanding of how your WordPress site utilizes media files before bulk deletion!

I’ve used Media Cleaner a few times and find it quite useful. The only downside is that it will identify an image that is in use on a page. It’s no big deal, and it’s easy enough to replace the image, but irritating. Other than that, it’s easy enough to use, the UI is easy to understand, and it is quite rapid.

I’ve been using the Media Cleaner plugin, and I couldn’t be happier with it! Unlike other similar plugins, Media Cleaner not only works flawlessly but also checks different plugins to ensure everything is in order. I recently purchased the Pro version, and it has exceeded my expectations. Kudos to the dev team for creating such an excellent tool!
