<p>Need to know which posts, builders, or meta fields still reference an image—or which uploads are safe to remove?</p>
<p><strong>ProgMaze Media Scanner</strong> runs a <strong>deep scan</strong> of your site: it walks public post types (including templates), reads <code>post_content</code> and <code>post_meta</code>, parses Gutenberg-style block data, URLs, featured images, and nested serialized or JSON values so you get a clear picture of <strong>where each file is used</strong> and what is <strong>unused</strong>.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Full site scan</strong> — Scans all post types, pages, custom post types, templates, and reusable blocks.</li>
<li><strong>Gutenberg aware</strong> — Parses block JSON attributes (core/image, core/gallery, core/cover, core/video, core/file, core/media-text, and more) to find media IDs.</li>
<li><strong>Page builder support</strong> — Scans media used in Gutenberg, Avada, Elementor, and similar setups that store IDs or URLs in content or meta.</li>
<li><strong>Featured image tracking</strong> — Detects when a media item is used as a featured image on any post or custom post type.</li>
<li><strong>Post meta scanning</strong> — Finds media in ACF fields, WooCommerce product galleries, and other plugins that store attachment IDs or URLs in meta.</li>
<li><strong>Usage detail view</strong> — Open any item to see every post that uses it, with Edit and View links and usage type (content, featured image, meta, gallery, setting).</li>
<li><strong>Safe deletion</strong> — Only unused media can be deleted directly; used items can be detached first or removed with <strong>Detach & Delete</strong>.</li>
<li><strong>Bulk delete</strong> — Remove multiple unused items in one action.</li>
<li><strong>Incremental updates</strong> — Saving a post re-scans that post only, keeping the cache fresh without a full rescan.</li>
<li><strong>Filters</strong> — All / Used / Unused, mime type filters, and search by filename.</li>
<li><strong>Library overview</strong> — On the main screen: total storage, image vs non-image space, space by file type (bars), largest uploads, and most-referenced media (cached for performance).</li>
</ul>
<h4>Supported for</h4>
<ul>
<li>WordPress Gutenberg (core blocks)</li>
<li>Elementor</li>
<li>Avada</li>
<li>ACF (Advanced Custom Fields)</li>
<li>WooCommerce (featured image + gallery)</li>
<li>Builders that store media URLs or IDs in <code>post_content</code> or <code>post_meta</code></li>
</ul>
<h3>How it works</h3>
<p>When you run <strong>Scan All Media</strong>, the plugin rebuilds its usage cache: it inspects content and meta for attachment IDs, upload URLs, <code>_thumbnail_id</code>, WooCommerce galleries, and nested structures. Each link is stored with a usage type. Saving a post triggers a targeted re-scan for that post only.</p>
<p>On <strong>Media <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> ProgMaze Media Scanner</strong>, filter by used or unused, narrow by type, search by filename, use <strong>View Usage</strong> for details, and delete or <strong>Detach & Delete</strong> as needed. Deletions are permanent—back up first.</p>


ProgMaze Media Scanner

Deep scan of where media is used site-wide; find unused library files and delete or detach them safely.

Folders – Unlimited Folders to Organize Media Library Folder, Pages, Posts, File Manager

I needed a way to separate images from my woocommerce shop and my articles and tested this version. It is a great plugin and has great docs. Really useful plugin and I can not reccomend it enough. Also the support is some of the best I have encountered on any wordpress related products yet

Useful plugin with great support


We used another plugin for a few years now for websites we build with a lot of media to manage. We used other organization plugins but, Folders Pro made it a whole lot easier to manage with the traditional files/folders feel and having drag/drop organization. Well done.


Great product and great support

Excellent pluggin


I love this product makes WordPress better!


Great Product


Apart from the obvious, and this being an amazing tool to work with and ease your life if you get into a project that had skyrocketed the regular media library, their support is amazing. They're kind and fast, and very approachable. Consider go PRO 'cause apart from the extra features their support totally worth it.


Awesome support!


This has been a very helpful plugin because our company's websites have extensive media collections. It makes it easier for me to find what I need because I don't always remember what I named particular media files. I use the free version, which is all I need currently.


Nicely executed and does what it says it does
