Media Cleaner: Reinige dein WordPress!

Beschreibung

Media Cleaner ist ein leistungsstarkes Plugin, das hilft, die WordPress-Mediathek aufzuräumen, indem es ungenutzte Medieneinträge und Dateien löscht aber auch defekte Einträge repariert. Mit einer internen Papierkorb-Funktion kannst du Änderungen vorab überprüfen und bestätigen, bevor etwas endgültig gelöscht wird. Außerdem nutzt Media Cleaner eine intelligente Analyse, um die Kompatibilität mit bestimmten Plugins und Themes sicherzustellen.

Verwende es zusammen mit Database Cleaner für die ultimative Aufräumaktion.

Media Cleaner ist der Ninja für die Mediathek – er entfernt heimlich alle unnötigen Medien und kaputten Einträge, die den Speicherplatz verstopfen. Vergewissere dich vorher, dass du einen soliden Backup-Plan hast, bevor du den Ninja loslässt.

Wenn du mehr über Kompatibilität, Funktionen und die Pro-Version erfahren möchtest, schaue dir die Anleitung auf der offizielle Website an.

Kompatibilität

Dieses Plugin ist mit allen Medientypen kompatibel, einschließlich Retina- und WebP-Versionen. Es wurde mit einer Vielzahl von WordPress-Versionen getestet, einschließlich der neuesten Version mit Gutenberg, sowie mit verschiedenen Themes und zusammen mit einer großen Community. Das Plugin unterstützt auch WooCommerce. Für Benutzer mit komplexeren Plugins für die Bearbeitung von Website-Inhalten kann die Pro-Version für eine optimale Kompatibilität erforderlich sein. Wir arbeiten ständig daran, die Kompatibilität mit anderen Plugins zu verbessern.

Pro-Version

Media Cleaner Pro erweitert die kostenlose Version von Media Cleaner um zusätzliche Funktionen:

  • Dateisystem-Analyse: Scannt das physische /uploads-Verzeichnis und gleicht es mit der Mediathek ab.
  • Zusätzliche Unterstützung für komplexe Plugins wie ACF, Metabox, Divi Builder, Fusion Builder (Avada), WPBakery Page Builder, Visual Composer, Elementor, Beaver Builder, Brizy Builder, Oxygen Builder, Slider Revolution, Justified Image Grid, Avia Framework und viele mehr!
  • Live-Website-Scan: Analysiert die Online-Version deiner Website und kann in einigen Fällen die Genauigkeit verbessern.
  • WP-CLI-Unterstützung: Ermöglicht es, das Plugin mit höherer Geschwindigkeit oder automatisch mit direktem Serverzugriff (über SSH) auszuführen.

So we added a plugin that was constantly duplicating images and eating up our server space. We were really confused. We even chose to upgraded our hosting, come to find out the files duplication were not stopping at all, it reached 400 gb! Digging up on the internet we started looking up for some plugin that could resolve this otherwise we were going to opt for 1 TB VPS that would have been such a waste of money!This plugin cleaned all the crap stored and saved a lot of space! Thank you!

I’ve been working on a website that has been regularly updated since 2012. It’s been redesigned at least 5 or 6 times so far. With every redesign, unused images from the previous versions were never cleaned up. Currently, there are around 500-600 images actively used on the site, but there are over 10,000 files in the media library, which unnecessarily bloats the site. Every time I take a backup, I realize I’m backing up an extra 3.5 GB of useless data. Thanks to the free version of the plugin, I was able to clean up the unused images quite easily. I’m about to purchase the pro version so I can run scans directly on the server. It hasn’t let me down so far, and I hope the developer continues to improve this plugin.

I’ve used this on a website a few years back, we started with manual deletion of unattached media and files on the server. This was extremely time-consuming.Media Cleaner helped a lot in this process and saved a lot of time.

Media Cleaner is one of the best Media Cleaner I have used.The cleaning process neatly divides the media into categories so you have an overview of which files you can delete and clean up.

Cubre las diversas necesidades solicitadas, y va más allá de otros limpiadores que son muy superficiales.
