Scan and remove unused media files from your WordPress site to free up disk space.

Masum

Mediaspy scans your entire WordPress site and shows you which media files are not used anywhere. Review the results, then delete what you don’t need – one by one or all at once.
Why Mediaspy?
Most plugins check only post content. Mediaspy checks everything – page builders, widgets, theme CSS, customizer settings, code snippets, and more – before calling a file unused.
<h4>What gets scanned</h4>
<ul>
<li>Post and page content</li>
<li>Featured images</li>
<li>Page builder data (Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Kadence, and more)</li>
<li>Theme CSS files</li>
<li>Widget and Customizer settings</li>
<li>Code snippet plugins (WPCode, Code Snippets, FluentSnippets)</li>
<li>Plugin options stored in the database</li>
</ul>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Scan your full media library – every image, video, audio file, PDF, archive, and document</li>
<li>See where each file is used – click any file to see every page, post, or setting referencing it</li>
<li>Grid and List view – browse results as cards or a full table</li>
<li>Filter by file type – Images, Videos, Audio, PDFs, Archives, Documents</li>
<li>Search by filename – find any file instantly</li>
<li>Sort by size or date – tackle the biggest space wasters first</li>
<li>Bulk delete – select multiple files and delete with one click</li>
<li>Download ZIP – back up unused files before deleting</li>
<li>Import ZIP – restore a previously exported archive back into your library</li>
<li>Live sync – uploads and deletions made elsewhere reflect instantly, no re-scan needed</li>
<li>Zero performance impact – only runs when you click Scan Now, nothing loads on the front end</li>
</ul>

Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Kadence Blocks, Beaver Builder, Brizy, Oxygen, Bricks, ACF, WooCommerce, and any builder that stores data in post meta or options.
