Media Usage Manager – Personal

🚀 Media Usage Manager – Smart Media Cleanup for WordPress

Managing a large WordPress media library can quickly become overwhelming — especially in WooCommerce stores with thousands of products and images.

Media Usage Manager gives you full control over your media files by detecting unused images, protecting critical assets, and offering safe cleanup options — including a powerful Quarantine Mode.

🔍 Intelligent Media Scanning

The plugin performs a deep scan of:

• Post content

• Post meta (including WooCommerce galleries)

• Options table

• Term meta

• Theme & active plugin files (optional filesystem scan)

It detects which images are:

• ✅ Used

• ❌ Unused

• 🔒 Protected (whitelisted or critical)

• 📦 Quarantined

All scanning is performed in AJAX batches, preventing timeouts even on large websites.

📦 Quarantine Mode (Safe Cleanup)

Instead of permanently deleting files immediately, you can move them to a secure quarantine folder:

Features:

• Restore files at any time

• Permanently delete when ready

• Automatic cleanup after X days (configurable)

• Prevents broken images on live sites

This dramatically reduces risk and increases confidence during cleanup.

💾 Storage Savings Overview

The plugin calculates the total file size of each attachment (including thumbnails and WebP/AVIF variants).

You can instantly see:

• How much space unused files consume

• How much space will be saved before deletion

• Total storage impact per status (Used / Unused / Quarantine)

Perfect for optimizing hosting costs and improving backup performance.
