    Hi,

    Is there an option to increase the number of images deleted at once? It appears I can only checkbox 20 at a time, which will take all day. I’d rather not use the delete all function as I’m scanning through visually first in case I spot something that doesn’t belong to me and should be left alone. A bit of middle ground would be welcome.

    Hi,

    It’s the only question/answer I have in the FAQ ?? Here: https://meowapps.com/media-cleaner/tutorial-debugging/

    Ah, I see, thanks very much. I’ve got it working now.

    One other thing that occurred to me that might be a useful feature is to narrow down the search to a particular uploader/username. Is that at all possible?

    It’s not that difficult but it requires some coding, and also how/where to add a field do to this. Problem is nobody asks for it so I can’t add things in the UI for one person ?? You could also modify the plugin by yourself, there is a search and if you have a developer maybe he could override it?

    Thanks for the reply. I totally understand you’ve got to tally your time/effort with the results achieved. It’s not the end of the world anyway now I’ve been through the report and filtered out all my left over junk manually. It just meant I had to be more careful when making decisions. Now the list is more manageable it will be easy going forwards.

    We do have a few developers who I’m sure would understand how to go about making these tweaks to the plugin, but I think I can live with it the way it is. ??

    Hi – seeking exactly the same solution with deleting >20 at a time but that FAQ link doesn’t appear to work any more.

    Could you possibly direct me if this exists somewhere else now? I did look at the FAQ and couldn’t see the answer.

    Many thanks!

    Hi @wlmmat! The FAQ is now here: https://meowapps.com/media-cleaner/faq/ ?? The answer is very easy and actually is the first question.

    Facepalm.

    Thanks Jordy!

    Actually sorry – this isn’t working for me. Set it to 200 in the posts (went back in to check it was saved) but Media Cleaner still showing just 20.

    Okay – found the coding fix in the comments. This worked.

    It’s probably overriden by something else, normally (and theoretically) that works. Otherwise, you will have to edit the core.php file, and replace this line:

    $posts_per_page = 20;

    Change the number. If you understand programming and WordPress, have a look at the line above, that should work. It would be interested to know why it doesn’t in some cases.
