Dear support team,
I’m happy user of Enfold theme, the best theme ever! The fact is that there is a number of media files uploaded to SFTP which factually are unused on the site. So, I’m looking for your advice which plugin would be the most appropriate to remove these unused files physically from SFTP? I already tried several, but all of them don’t see the files used in for example Enfold Masonry Gallaries…
Very appreciate your assistance.
Hey Alex,
This may have to be done manually via an FTP Client. If the files are all stored within on folder, this should be a quick process.
Best regards,
Jordan Shannon
Hi Jordan,
Thank you for reply but maybe I was not clear enough. Let me try to explain in example. For last 6 years of existing the site it was uploaded about 3000 mediafiles (photos, videos, documents). Most of them are really used in some posts, so, they need to be kept. But some of them (15-20 %) are not used at all. I need to remove all the media files which are not used on any single post or page. WPS Cleaner plugin can do such work but for some reason it thinks that photos, which are definitely used in Enfold Masonry Gallery, are unused, so, it will remove such photos.
Just wanted to get an advice on what plugin would be more suitable for this task from Enfold Theme perspective.
Hi,
Thanks for the update.
You can use this filter to manually unset or disable specific thumbnails.
Or install the Simple Image Sizes plugin if you don’t to use the filter.
