Media Cleaner Pro 7.1.1
Description
Media Cleaner Pro is a WordPress plugin designed to reclaim storage by finding and removing unused and useless files from your Media Library and your Uploads Directory. Over time, images, documents, and other media can remain on the server even after you delete posts, pages, or blocks. Keeping these leftovers under control helps reduce unnecessary weight in your site.
By cleaning out media clutter, it supports a leaner WordPress site, faster backup processes, and smoother performance. The Pro version extends cleaning by performing deeper scans for plugin-related leftovers (especially from page-builder usage) and includes a filesystem check to help catch additional junk that may not be linked in the database.
