    I switched from another SVG plugin, Does Safe SVG sanitize images that are already in the media library? IF NOT, how do I get Safe SVG to sanitize those as well?

    Does Safe SVG sanitize images that are already in the media library

    It does not, sanitization only happens when an svg is uploaded.

    IF NOT, how do I get Safe SVG to sanitize those as well

    There currently isn’t a built-in way to handle this though it has been requested in the past and is something we’ve considered for a future roadmap. At the moment, the only way to achieve this is to write a custom script (using something like WP-CLI) that can find all existing svg files and then run those through our sanitization functions.
