Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about SEO'n'AI – Image Locator & Find Unused Images
Yes, within honest limits. Builders like Elementor, Divi and WPBakery store image references in post meta — as attachment IDs, as file URLs, or both. The scan searches post meta for the ID patterns and for every file name variant of the image. Exotic storage formats a builder might invent can escape any scanner; the live re-check before deletion is the safety net.
Something on the site changed since that image was last checked — any saved post or updated widget triggers it, for all images at once. It is not a statement about this particular image: if you have not placed the image anywhere since, the result still stands, and unused is still unused. Re-check the image or re-run the library scan to make it fresh. Bulk deletion never relies on outdated results anyway — every image is re-checked live right before deletion. The library scan takes a long time. That is thoroughness, not a hang — the progress counter shows the current run moving. Every image is checked individually against content, custom fields, page-builder data, widgets and term images, using the same logic that runs before any deletion. Large libraries with thousands of images take correspondingly long; to really catch everything, that time is the price. Keep the tab open — the scan works in small batches and cannot time out. It is a one-time cost: after the first full run, "Check new images" only scans new uploads.
No. Everything runs in the admin, and the media list reads only cached values. The visitor-facing site is never touched.
Because deleting images is the one step here that cannot be undone, and WordPress ships with the media trash switched off. A plugin cannot switch it on — the constant MEDIA_TRASH is settled in wp-config.php, before plugins load. So the plugin does the next best thing with WordPress' own mechanism (wp_trash_post()): images it deletes are moved to a trash and can be restored with their original ID from Media → Image Locator. If your wp-config.php does set MEDIA_TRASH, the plugin uses WordPress' media trash instead and stays out of the way.
Walk through the places a scan cannot look into: the home page, sliders and hero areas, category and product pages, a few older posts, and any page your builder or theme assembles from its own files. Images hard-coded in template files or referenced only from CSS are invisible to any database scan — if one of them is missing, you will see the gap there. Restore it from the trash and you are done. Only empty the trash once you are sure. Remember that WordPress empties it on its own after 30 days.
Deleting the plugin is safe: before it uninstalls itself, it restores every image it put in the trash back into the media library — with the original ID, as always. Nothing of yours is left behind in a place you cannot see. Deactivating is different, and the plugin warns you about it right on the plugins screen while images are still in the trash. Trashed images stay trashed, the media library does not list them (that is WordPress without MEDIA_TRASH), and WordPress deletes trashed items for good once EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS have passed — with or without this plugin. So restore what you want to keep before you deactivate; one button on the plugins screen or in the trash view does it for all of them at once.
Never. Deletion happens only when you select images and run the bulk action yourself — and even then, every image is re-checked live first.
No plugin can guarantee that, and you should distrust any that claims to. Hard-coded template references and external use are invisible to a database scan. That is why deletion is manual, warned, and re-checked.
