How to question

    I ran the plugin and indexed succesfully 3635 unreferenced images.

    since I’m a WP noob I have some questions about how to use properly this plugin.

    First: how can I have 3000+ unreferenced images if, according to my media gallery, I have 1001 images uploaded.

    Second: not sure if this is the correct way to use plugin but I’m acting like this. … First I’m moving all the unreferenced imgaes (which it takes me some time since I have to go through 37 pages of results!). I assume that MOVING images makes them “unreachable” by any post that may point at them ,so, then, I’ll check my web site to see if there is any broken image link in my posts, if not FINALLY will get back to the last images index I ran and DELETE PERMANENTLY the images.
    Is this right?

    Third: Moved images are PHYSICALLY moved in my wbe site directory structure? If yes WHERE? I ask this so I may get to te dir where images are moved and backup them via FTP to prevent any possible future problems.

    Thank in advance for you kind reply.

    Regards.

    On the first “tab” of the plugin where you can see the General options. There are some actions which you can take for all files.

    You are able to Move All, Restore All and Delete All files. Please check the actions in the general tab.

    The files are moved to: \wp-content\uploads\imagecleanup\

    After our emails I believe this issue can now be closed no? Looking forward to your response.
