About this plugin

TekMedia adds the organisation and cleanup tools the WordPress media library is missing, without asking you to learn a second interface. It looks and behaves like wp-admin, because it is wp-admin.

Organise

  • Unlimited nested folders with drag-and-drop reordering
  • File shortcuts — put one file in several folders without a second copy on disk
  • Search across your whole library or inside one folder
  • Select many files at once to move or delete them
  • Replace a file while keeping its URL and attachment ID, so every post using it updates automatically
  • Import openly licensed photos from Openverse, Pexels or Unsplash straight into a folder

Optimise

  • Compress images on your own server — no account, no upload to a third party
  • 500 images a month on the free plan, with what is left shown before you start
  • Originals are kept, so any optimization can be undone
  • Filenames, URLs and attachment IDs never change

Clean up safely

  • Scan for files that no post, page, featured image or widget references
  • See exactly where a file is used before you touch it
  • Find duplicates — identical files, and the same photo re-uploaded at another size
  • Nothing is ever deleted without a confirmation that states the consequence in plain numbers
  • A recoverable trash: trashed files keep working on your site until you empty it

Name your files properly

  • Alt text, title and caption in one panel, with a completeness meter
  • Suggested filenames derived from your alt text, renamed in one click
  • Bulk rename with a pattern builder, live preview and per-file numbering
  • Old URLs keep working — every previous filename 301-redirects to the current one, thumbnails included

Know what you are storing

  • A storage breakdown on your WordPress dashboard, by media type
  • Your largest files, ranked
  • Library entries whose file has gone missing from disk, with a re-upload or remove-entry fix

TekMedia Pro

Every Pro feature’s interface ships inside this plugin, shown in place with a PRO badge. Installing TekMedia Pro unlocks it exactly where it already is — no settings move, and nothing has to be set up twice.

  • Cloud storage. Connect Google Drive or Dropbox, browse a folder and import files into TekMedia, optionally keeping them synced.
  • Builder-aware scanning. Deep scans read Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, ACF and Beaver Builder layouts, so a file used only inside a page builder is no longer flagged as unused.
  • Post-type-wide folders. Folders can hold products, posts or any post type you enable, not only media.

TekMedia works fully on its own. Pro is an addition, never a requirement.
