Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about UploadSleuth – Media Audit & Cleanup

No. A finding means the plugin did not detect a reference in the locations it checked. Treat it as a candidate requiring review.

Quarantine moves selected files into a timestamped directory below the configured quarantine folder while preserving their original relative paths. The quarantine directory is excluded from future scans.

Yes. The Quarantined files panel lists recoverable files and restores each one to its original uploads path. Restore is blocked rather than overwriting a file that already exists there. The same panel can permanently delete selected quarantined files or all recoverable quarantined files. Downloadable backup ZIPs are not included in Delete all.

The dashboard and WP-CLI create one ZIP, verify every archived entry using its size and SHA-256 hash, and only then remove the originals. The dashboard starts an authenticated download; WP-CLI reports the protected server-side archive path.

Yes. Dry-run is an opt-in checkbox in the dashboard. WP-CLI supports --dry-run with quarantine or deletion.

Yes. Dashboard scans process database candidates in small batches. Stop finishes the current request, saves everything classified through the latest completed batch, and marks the result as partial. Unprocessed candidates are not included in partial findings.

ACF commonly stores values in post, term, user, and options metadata. Those locations are checked. Unusual custom tables can be configured explicitly.

Run wp upload-sleuth. Use wp help upload-sleuth for all options.

Use wp upload-sleuth --older-than=90 --min-size=100 to report candidates older than 90 days and at least 100 KB.

Yes. --summary-only --fail-on-findings provides a concise result and a non-zero exit when candidates exist.
