• It worked for me. Plus something unexpected.

    I had to install a new WordPress one level “down” from the old one.
    site.com/ to site.com/wp/

    I had a HUGE image mess.
    The images in the new site still pointed to the old site. I tried importing more than once, my host transferred them into the new directery (I know now that does not work), I tried plugins to pull the images into my new site – some did not recognize the old site as different, etc…I ended up with 3,500 photos, not 300, 90% not recoginized by my site – nor dealt with other fix-it plugins. Some were not showing on the site, but were in the database, and whatever else was going on.

    I turns out there were a ton of “phantom” images too. Images not actually present, but recorded in the database. I learned that from this plugin.

    This plugin deleted the duplicates. AND Updated my database about missing images that everything else said were there. A life saver.

    I only deleted 20-50 at a time and periodically checked my site. No problem.

    Thank you.
