All destructive actions require explicit user confirmation. ### What is the “Filesystem” detector? It searches your active theme’s PHP/HTML/JS/CSS files for any hard-coded references to an image’s filename or URL. You can also enable full-installation scanning (all files under ABSPATH) in Settings. ### Can I protect specific images from being flagged? Yes — add their attachment IDs to the Exclusions list in Settings, or click the “ Exclude” button on any result row. ### Does it work with WooCommerce / ACF / Elementor? Yes. The relevant detectors activate automatically when those plugins are present. ### Why is the “Trash” button not working or missing in Media Library? By default, WordPress disables the recycle bin for media files. To enable it and make the “Move to Trash” button functional, add this line to your `wp-config.php` file: define( ‘MEDIA_TRASH’, true ); ### What PHP version is required? PHP 7.4 or higher. ## Reseñas No hay reseñas para este plugin. ## Colaboradores & Desarrolladores “s404 Orphaned Attachment Scanner” es software de código abierto.
