FAQ
-
Does this plugin delete media files?
-
No. Era Media Usage Finder is a reporting tool only. It does not delete files or change content.
-
Why does the plugin say « likely unused »?
-
WordPress sites can reference media in many places, including page builders, shortcodes, custom tables, theme options, and external systems. The plugin scans common WordPress locations and reports files with no detected references as likely unused rather than guaranteed unused.
-
Does it send media URLs to an external service?
-
No. All scanning runs inside your WordPress admin area and uses your site’s local database.
-
Can it detect featured images?
-
Yes. It detects
_thumbnail_idreferences and labels them as featured image usage.
