Unused Image Cleaner is a free WordPress plugin that finds Media Library images nothing uses, in minutes, even on sites with millions of database rows. It reads the database once, builds an index of every image reference, then checks each image in a single pass. Check results 10 at a time, look up any image with "Where is it used?", and move confirmed images to the Trash, where they can always be restored. No Pro version, no limits, and nothing leaves your site.

Hi Product Hunt! I run a few large WordPress sites, and their Media Libraries had grown to thousands of images: most of them replaced, duplicated or left behind by deleted posts. Every cleaner I tried either took hours on a big database, timed out, or flagged images that were actually in use. So we built Unused Image Cleaner: - Minutes, not hours: it reads the database once, builds an index of every image reference, then checks each image in a single pass. On a site with 5,105 images and 1.9 million database rows, a full scan takes about 2 minutes. - Strict about "used": full file paths (not just names), every resized copy, page builders like Elementor, plugin tables, theme files and settings. - "Where is it used?": look up any image and see every place it appears, with links. - Safe: the scan only reads. You check results 10 at a time, and removal always goes to the Trash first, so anything can be restored. - Completely free: no Pro version, no limits, and no data leaves your site. I'd love your feedback, especially if you have a large or unusual site. If it misses something, tell me how that image is used and I'll teach the scan.
