<p>SJF Cleaner is a free all-in-one cleanup tool for WordPress administrators.</p>
<p>It helps you find typical technical leftovers in a WordPress installation and remove them in a controlled way. The plugin focuses on transparency: it shows what was found first, then lets you decide what should be deleted.</p>
<p>No cleanup action runs automatically in the background. Always create a full backup of files and database before deleting files or database entries.</p>
<h4>Main features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Plugin leftovers: list inactive plugin directories with file count, size and directory date.</li>
<li>Database cleanup: remove revisions, auto-drafts, trashed posts, spam comments, orphaned meta data and expired transients.</li>
<li>Media duplicates: find exact duplicate media files using MD5 hash comparison of the original file.</li>
<li>Unused media: find media files not attached to posts and not referenced in content, featured images or post meta.</li>
<li>Draft media: find media files attached to old unpublished draft content.</li>
<li>Large files: list oversized images, videos and other uploads based on configurable thresholds.</li>
<li>Themes: list installed themes and protect the active theme and parent theme from deletion.</li>
<li>Transients: group transients by source prefix and show count, size and expired entries.</li>
<li>Broken attachments: find media library entries whose file no longer exists on the server.</li>
<li>URL checker: check links in published posts and pages for HTTP availability.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Free version</h4>
<p>The free version is designed for manual WordPress maintenance. It helps you inspect cleanup candidates and run selected cleanup actions.</p>
<p>For advanced automation, extended deletion workflows, unlimited URL cleanup, statistics, Multisite support and license management, SJF Cleaner Pro is available separately from SJF.solutions.</p>
<h4>Security</h4>
<ul>
<li>All actions require administrator permission (<code>manage_options</code>).</li>
<li>Cleanup requests are nonce-protected.</li>
<li>Active plugins are protected from deletion.</li>
<li>The active theme and parent theme are protected.</li>
<li>No automatic cleanup runs without user action.</li>
<li>User input is sanitized before processing.</li>
</ul>

<h4>Cleaner Start Page for “Add Plugins” (Installer)</h4>
<p>A LARGE search box to find plugins for installing more easily and way faster.</p>
<p>No clutter. The regular content of the “Featured” tab was removed: not the 6 same old plugin cards cards any longer and no useless tag cloud anymore!</p>
<p>Plus: set the number of displayed plugin cards per page via “Screen Options” tab (on top right corner).</p>
</blockquote>
<h4>Scratching My Own Itch</h4>
<p>As of WordPress 4.0+, going to “Add Plugins” page and being welcomed by always the same old 6 featured plugin cards annoyed me big time! So I thought on how to change this default behavior. Due to WordPress’ genius Hooks & Filter functionality I could easily tweak this via my plugin.</p>
<p>Now it starts with what should have been the default (in my opinion) from the beginning: a large and nice plugin search box – because that’s what I do all the day :). Side benefit: better performance as no external plugin card content has to be loaded!</p>
<p><em>And there you have it, a one-purpose admin helper plugin aiming at (super) administrators and webmasters searching for and installing plugins from WordPress.org repository on a daily basis.</em></p>
