Need to know which posts, builders, or meta fields still reference an image—or which uploads are safe to remove?
ProgMaze Media Scanner runs a deep scan 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 where each file is used and what is unused.
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Full site scan — Scans all post types, pages, custom post types, templates, and reusable blocks.</li>
<li>Gutenberg aware — 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>Page builder support — Scans media used in Gutenberg, Avada, Elementor, and similar setups that store IDs or URLs in content or meta.</li>
<li>Featured image tracking — Detects when a media item is used as a featured image on any post or custom post type.</li>
<li>Post meta scanning — Finds media in ACF fields, WooCommerce product galleries, and other plugins that store attachment IDs or URLs in meta.</li>
<li>Usage detail view — 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>Safe deletion — Only unused media can be deleted directly; used items can be detached first or removed with Detach & Delete.</li>
<li>Bulk delete — Remove multiple unused items in one action.</li>
<li>Incremental updates — Saving a post re-scans that post only, keeping the cache fresh without a full rescan.</li>
<li>Filters — All / Used / Unused, mime type filters, and search by filename.</li>
<li>Library overview — 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>
When you run Scan All Media, 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.
On Media → ProgMaze Media Scanner, filter by used or unused, narrow by type, search by filename, use View Usage for details, and delete or Detach & Delete as needed. Deletions are permanent—back up first.

Instant Images – One-click Image Uploads from Unsplash, Openverse, Pixabay, Pexels, and Giphy

Nice work mate. Amazing tool for development and test site. Kudos to you.

Amazing tool

This is a great plugin that can save you a lot of time if you need to add placeholder images.

Easy to use and time saver


The recent addition of Openverse really makes this one of the best (if not the best) plugins for adding free / creative commons / public domain images/photos/etc. libraries/services to your site.



Some of the image libraries can have limited offerings so this providing as many of these libraries as possible to then pull from really helps with that situation to be able to find the best asset you're looking for.


Best all-in-one solution for free/cc/public domain images/photos/etc.


Exceptionally designed. Super functional.



Does what it says it would. This plugin deserves a 10-star rating.



Great job!


This Plugin Just Works!


Working perfect in WP, but not in ClassicPress. I tested in CP 2.0 and it doesn't load, the loading gif is endless.  P.S. ClassicPress is a modified version of WordPress (without Gutenberg)


Working perfect in WP, but...

There was an error accessing the WP REST API.Instant Images requires access to the WP REST API via POST request to fetch and upload images to your media library.

There was an error accessing the WP REST API


I'm recommending it even on the Newsletter plugin composer: it makes newsletters more professional and save a huge amount of time. Thank you.
