Occasional notes from the jobs that made me build these plugins.
The half of media cleanup that reads ACF fields, WooCommerce product galleries, custom post types and page-builder markup is the half the paid tiers in this category are made of. Why the split falls there, and how to test any cleaner before you let it delete anything.
The free media cleaner that is built to be wrong in one direction only. Six things it will not do — guess, trust a stale answer, forget the trash, touch work in progress, summarise, or pretend it can see everything — plus a Playground demo you can try without installing anything.
The show_admin_bar filter with a capability check, in ten lines you own: why a role name is the wrong test, why wp-admin is never touched, the three places the snippet can live, the complete script and how to verify it.
Three files in five said “Unattached”. Almost none of them were unused. A case study of a media library nobody could account for — the stranded PDFs, the old logos, and why the Unattached filter is not a cleanup tool.
