Delete Thumbnails
by David Sword on WordPress.org
List of all resized images in uploads directory with options to select and delete
Delete thumbnails & resized images from your Media Library
- Delete some or all of WordPress’s resized images (thumbnails, medium, and large, plus extra ones Plugins/Themes make secretly)
 - This can clear thousands of unwanted files from your uploads directory
 - Useful if you’ve had lots of different theme/plugins over the years, and inadvertently accumulated a vast number of resized images that are no longer used by your site
 
Take careful note
- Deleting is permanent
 - You can use this plugin to regenerate your Media Library after (as WordPress will need the default sizes)
 
Please Note
- 🍺 This is a recently revived and re-written plugin, the bad reviews were correct for the old versions, but not current version. If you experience any issues, please open a support request, I’m happy to help fix any issues and help plugin grow.
 
Road Map
The current todo list
- [ ] Add css animation/color to nag inputs when clicking disabled button
 - [ ] Add 
count($this->library)result as ‘exempt’ in main info banner to assure Media Library items are safe - [ ] Add size range filters (ie: delete resized that are within x – y restraints)
 - [ ] Make 
Viewlink work off of a Lightbox instead of a new browser tab - [ ] Please add any additional requests into the Support tab.
