Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about EvoMedia – Link-Safe Media Replace, Convert & Cleanup
No. EvoMedia keeps the attachment and updates WordPress's own metadata, so everything that renders through WordPress keeps working. And if a replace changes the file's name or its format, every reference in posts and postmeta is rewritten to match - serialized data included.
Only if you ask it to. Keep the current file name and the URL stays identical: nothing anywhere needs updating. Choose the uploaded file's name, or a different format, and EvoMedia rewrites every reference for you. Be aware that if other websites link straight to the old file, those links will break - that is unavoidable once the filename changes.
Yes. Tick "Backup originals before converting" and the original is archived before each conversion. Restore it from the Backup Status column, per image or in bulk.
Whichever your server's image driver can actually encode - commonly WebP, AVIF and JPEG, and JPEG XL on the rare host whose Imagick was built with it. Only formats your server can write are listed: nothing is shown that you cannot select and use immediately, and nothing your server supports is held back. The System Info page reports exactly what your image driver can do.
No. Turning a size off only stops WordPress generating it for new uploads and regenerations - the files already on disk are left exactly as they are. (Reclaiming that disk space by deleting a size's existing files is a job for the Pro add-on.)
Those are WordPress core sizes, flagged with a warning, because themes and the responsive-image system often rely on them. WordPress falls back to a nearby size if one is missing, but layouts can shift - so turn off a core size only if you know your theme doesn't use it. The extra HiDPI copies (1536×1536, 2048×2048) are usually the safest to drop.
It rebuilds every image's sub-sizes to match your current settings - (re)creating the sizes you have on and dropping the ones you turned off. It never deletes files and only touches the sub-sizes, never your originals.
Yes. Turn on "Resize on upload" in the upload panel to cap every incoming image at 2560px and drop the oversized full-size original WordPress would otherwise keep beside it. It is off by default, so nothing changes until you switch it on. (The Pro add-on lets you set your own maximum dimensions, and resize images already in your library.)
Build the index from EvoMedia → Media Usage. Every image then carries a "Used in" count in the Control Center that opens to show the exact posts, custom fields and site settings referring to it, and which size each one uses. A count of 0 means nothing on your site points at it. An image that has not been scanned yet shows "?" and never "0", so you are never told an image is unused just because it has not been looked at. (Deleting unused images in bulk is a feature of the Pro add-on; the free build shows you what is safe to remove.)
The free build only lists them. Duplicates are compared byte for byte, not guessed from their size, so nothing is called a duplicate until the contents match; entries that merely share one file on disk are listed apart. Orphaned files are looked for only in the year and month folders WordPress itself creates, and any file your content still references by name is flagged as still in use. Removing them is the Pro add-on's job, and it re-scans and re-checks each file at the moment of deletion, so nothing in use is ever taken off disk.
