Use it for years now for a particular type of clients: the ones happily uploading all their media in bulk – use only some of them and never look back.
At some point we have to upgrade their hosting plan. We know the question coming after telling this.
Why? It′s a small website – I did not change anything – etc.
Have a look at your Media Library my dear
Oh I See all uploads but I dont need all that images. Can′t you just delete the unused ones for me?
Nope..
I can select ¨unattached files¨ in WordPress but that does not give a clue if you bulk uploaded before and/or if you use that images in other places.
But: I do have a tip for you!
We can install a nice FREE plugin that checks out you Media library, and for every image that seams not to be in use on your website, you get a list with a nice little preview thumbnail & the name of the file to help you remember if you need that image to stay in you Library.
This is something you can do to help you:
So clients go through their files, also having a moment to update their blogs, filenames and helping their SEO as a bonus.
The only thing we do for them because we know : people do not read anymore, so they do miss warnings. We backup the whole website before we send the advice.

]]>Please use this plugin its a lifesaver.
I plan to pay for the paid version as I advance.
]]>Unlike IMAGELINKS, this one has no limits.
IMAGELINKS plugin (paid or free) also has wierd scaling issues — sometimes your co-ordinates do not match where you laid them.
This plugin has saved me a bunch.
