Issue: photos in portfolio marked as "seems not in use"

  • Hi Jordy

    Just upgraded to ‘pro’ to be able to batch clean all those legacy images in my WordPress installation. Browsing through the scan results, I encountered many images that are attached to pages and/or used in portfolios. I tried to delete one of the photos, just to be sure, and I had to re-upload it again. Seems that Media File Cleaner ignores custom post types maybe? Would you be interested in taking a look at why Media File Cleaner failes to detect that the media is actually in use? I can easily provide you with a “duplicator” site backup, or a login to our site to check.

    Kind regards
    Bjarne

    Hello,

    It scan all the post types. However, your images are not used? They are simply “attached”? Maybe I am wrong now but I think that if it is only attached it is detected as unused… ??

    Thanks for the reply Jordy. The photos are both attached and used on the page. Take a look at https://www.kegnaes-friskole.dk/fotos/ I’m using the custom post type “portfolio” to display four small “galleries”. All the photos are marked as unused. I’m using the Pinnacle theme from Kadence Themes.

    How are they used on the page? What is the HTML code for it? Is it the standard gallery shortcode from WordPress? Can I have a copy paste of the HTML of one or your gallery (in the portfolio editor)?
