<p>Wondering if this image is even used on your site? Can it safely be deleted?</p>
<p>Or you need to update an image, but not sure which pages will be affected?</p>
<p>You’re curious if you’ve used this image too many times…</p>
<p>With this plugin, when <strong>choosing an image in the Media Library</strong>, you’ll see a section <strong>“Where is it used”</strong> in the image details on the right.</p>
<h4>Limitations</h4>
<p>This plugin scans the database for the image — that means it will find the image when you’ve inserted it using the WordPress admin, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Content inside a Page/Post/Custom Post type</li>
<li>Featured images</li>
<li>ACF fields</li>
<li>Site Icon (favicon)</li>
</ul>
<p>That also means it WON’T find places where the image is used outside of the admin, such as:<br />
* Code (PHP, HTML, CSS that you wrote that links directly to the image)<br />
* Other websites that link to it<br />
* The image used in your email signature</p>
<h4>Tested plugins that are compatible</h4>
<ul>
<li>ACF</li>
<li>WooCommerce</li>
</ul>
<p>Do you use a plugin that manages images on your site but this plugin doesn’t see them? Let me know and I can figure out how to include those images in the search.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>View where any image is used across your WordPress site</li>
<li>Notes on where to look for the image so it’s easier to find on the edit screen (Feature image? Page content? ACF field?)</li>
<li>Quick links to edit and view the page contianing the image</li>
<li>No configuration needed – just install and activate</li>
</ul>
<h4>Use Cases</h4>
<ul>
<li>Find unused images that can be safely deleted</li>
<li>Audit duplicate images so you can decide which one to keep</li>
<li>Locate where specific images are being used</li>
<li>Notice images that are over-used (pick a different image for some more variety)</li>
<li>Identify orphaned images</li>
<li>Track featured image usage</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Open the WordPress Media Library</li>
<li>Click on any image to view its details</li>
<li>Look for the “Where is it used” section in the image details sidebar (on bottom right)</li>
<li>See a list of all places where the image is used, with links to edit those pages</li>
</ol>
<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
<p>Where Image Used does not collect any personal data. It only scans your WordPress content to find where images are used within your site.</p>
