Improve the default Media Library to see where your images are being used across your WordPress site.

MediaMan – Where is this Image Used?

<p>Wondering if this image is even used on your site? Can it safely be deleted?</p>
<p>Or you need to update an image, but not sure which pages will be affected?</p>
<p>You&#8217;re curious if you&#8217;ve used this image too many times&#8230;</p>
<p>With this plugin, when <strong>choosing an image in the Media Library</strong>, you&#8217;ll see a section <strong>&#8220;Where is it used&#8221;</strong> in the image details on the right.</p>
<h4>Limitations</h4>
<p>This plugin scans the database for the image &#8212; that means it will find the image when you&#8217;ve inserted it using the WordPress admin, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Content inside a Page/Post/Custom Post type</li>
<li>Featured images</li>
<li>ACF fields</li>
<li>Site Icon (favicon)</li>
</ul>
<p>That also means it WON&#8217;T find places where the image is used outside of the admin, such as:<br />
* Code (PHP, HTML, CSS that you wrote that links directly to the image)<br />
* Other websites that link to it<br />
* The image used in your email signature</p>
<h4>Tested plugins that are compatible</h4>
<ul>
<li>ACF</li>
<li>WooCommerce</li>
</ul>
<p>Do you use a plugin that manages images on your site but this plugin doesn&#8217;t see them? Let me know and I can figure out how to include those images in the search.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>

<li>No configuration needed &#8211; just install and activate</li>
</ul>
<h4>Use Cases</h4>
