Tidy Media

Tidy Media finds and removes unused images, videos, and other media files cluttering your WordPress Media Library. Files are moved to a quarantine folder before deletion, so you can restore anything that turns out to still be in use.

Page builder support, WooCommerce detection, and custom field scanning are all included with no feature gating.

Quarantine

Files are not deleted directly. They are moved to a quarantine folder where they remain for a configurable retention period (default 30 days). One-click restore brings the file back to its original location with all thumbnails intact. After the retention period files are automatically deleted, or you can clear the quarantine manually at any time.

Safety classes

Every result is marked Safe or Review, with the reason in plain words. Safe files can go to quarantine. Review files might still be used somewhere the scan cannot see, such as emails or other sites, and need an extra confirmation. Files that must stay, such as files still in use, form uploads, customer files or your Protected media IDs, are not listed, and Tidy Media never moves them.

Scanning

The scanner runs in two phases. First it collects every media reference it can find: post content, featured images, page builder data, WooCommerce products, custom fields, widgets, site options, comments, user profiles, terms, slider, form, SEO, newsletter, map and code snippet tables, theme files, must-use plugins and the plugins you choose. Then it compares every file in the Media Library against that list. Anything not found in any source is flagged as unused.

Scans run in batches with resource monitoring and can pause and resume, so they will not crash your site.

Page Builders

Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Bricks, SiteOrigin Page Builder and Brizy. Detects images used in widgets, modules, backgrounds, templates, and saved layouts. Builders that are not installed appear greyed out in the scan sources list.

WooCommerce

Product featured images, gallery images, variation images, category and tag thumbnails, and downloadable files.

Custom Fields

ACF, Meta Box, Pods, JetEngine, and Toolset Types. Image, file, gallery, and media fields in post meta, term meta, user meta, and option pages. Repeaters, groups, and flexible content layouts are walked.

Other

Filter results by file type, sort by size or upload date, and set a minimum file size for scans. Bulk actions for cleanup. CSV export of unused file lists. Detection of unregistered files (files in uploads/ without a Media Library entry, often left behind by backup or image optimization plugins).
