Media Library File Size Reviews
A great plugin
We use this plugin with a large WordPress site, where multiple users add images. We keep this plugin installed so everyone can easily see if images are too large.Love the ability to sort the media lib
Handy Little Plugin
Nice addition to the feature set of the WP Media library. Helpful to identify large media files that are taking up server space. Great work!
No sorting and incomplete immage size listing
Generally great plugin, just the extension in the Media Library (Medienübersicht) that shows you the size of each immage. But it only shows the size of the latest 60 immages. All that comes after
Disk Usage Insights Reviews
Found 28 gigs of unneeded image backup files! Saved me costly hosting upgrades
Website with a lot of images and when I went to create a staging copy of my site to do so updates, I was surprised my site had exploded in size… and I didnt have enough remaining space left in my host
it’s good
Well made, I appreciate adding that donut chart / file browser.
Beautiful and Helpful
I downloaded this plugin months ago and thought it was helpful. But recently I checked and found out this plugin changed. It now has an even better interface that is beautiful and much easier to view.
