Description
Neutrope Media Columns adds lightweight review information to the standard
WordPress Media Library list view. It is a review helper, not a cleanup tool:
it surfaces useful information so you can make your own decisions, and it keeps
the standard Media Library UI intact.
It adds two read-only columns and a small filter dropdown to the Media Library
list view (upload.php):
- Media Status — at-a-glance signals such as whether an attachment has a
parent post, whether it is used as a featured image, whether it is referenced
in post content, and whether an image is missing its alt text. - File Info — file size, image dimensions (for images), and MIME type.
- Media Review filter — quickly narrow the list to images that are missing
alt text, or to attachments that have no parent post.
The plugin is intentionally small and focused:
- It keeps the standard WordPress Media Library UI.
- It only looks at the attachments shown on the current page; it does not scan
your whole site. - It does not delete, trash, rename, or modify any media.
- It does not generate alt text.
- It does not connect to external services.
- There are no ads and no upsells.
Detection is deliberately conservative. When the Media Status column shows
« no basic signal » for an item, that only means the plugin did not find the
basic references it checks for. It does not mean the file can be removed — the
file may still be used by a theme, a custom field, a widget, a page builder,
CSS, or another plugin.
