About this plugin
MediaVoom is a safety-first Media Library maintenance toolkit that combines usage auditing, reversible cleanup, exact duplicate detection, orphan-file discovery, and local next-generation image generation in one workflow.
Its cleanup tools are deliberately conservative: files are classified before action, cleanup candidates can be moved to reversible Safe Trash, and permanent deletion remains a separate administrator-controlled step.
Image optimization
- Generate WebP copies locally.
- Generate AVIF copies when the server can reliably encode AVIF.
- Process original images and WordPress-generated image sizes.
- Optional optimization of new uploads.
- Frontend next-generation delivery using standards-based <picture> markup.
- Original JPEG/PNG/WebP files remain available as the fallback.
- Background bulk processing with Pause, Stop, Continue, Restart, WP-Cron fallback, and stale-job recovery.
- Existing up-to-date generated files are reused instead of regenerated.
Media cleanup
- Scan WordPress for media usage across content, featured images, common metadata, taxonomy metadata, widgets, theme settings, WooCommerce, Elementor, and selected media-shaped settings.
- Classify attachments as Used, Probably Unused, Needs Review, or Missing File.
- Move selected cleanup candidates to reversible Safe Trash.
- Restore Safe Trash items before permanent deletion if you change your mind.
- Detect exact duplicate images using SHA-256 file hashes.
- Scan the uploads filesystem separately for orphan files.
- Filter and bulk-select cleanup candidates.
- Keep technical optimizer messages on a separate Logs screen.
Safety and privacy
MediaVoom does not automatically delete media.
“Probably Unused” means that no supported reference was detected. A theme or plugin can still store a media reference in a custom location, so review cleanup candidates before moving or deleting them.
Image optimization is performed locally on your WordPress server. MediaVoom does not require an external optimization API and does not include telemetry.
Multisite
MediaVoom is multisite-aware. Each site keeps its own scan state, settings, Safe Trash, optimizer jobs, duplicate results, and orphan results. Network activation initializes defaults for existing sites and for newly created sites.
Source Code
All first-party JavaScript and CSS included with MediaVoom is shipped directly in human-readable, modifiable source form. No minified or obfuscated first-party JavaScript is distributed, and no build step is required to modify the bundled admin assets.
MediaVoom does not bundle third-party JavaScript or CSS libraries.
External Services
MediaVoom performs image optimization locally on the WordPress server. It does not require an external optimization API, does not send media to a third-party optimization service, and does not include telemetry.
