unused media cleaner

Unused Media Cleaner helps Drupal site admins find, export, and batch-delete large or unused media files. Save disk space and keep your media library organized with easy reporting and cleanup tools.

Features

• Generate a report of all media files above a chosen size threshold (1–10 MB).
• See where each media item is used, or if it is unused.
• Export the report to CSV (includes site name and timestamp).
• Batch delete all unused media files with one click (confirmation required).
• Estimate WebP size for each media item.
• Fast and reliable: all actions use the Drupal Batch API.
• No CSV dependency for display: all data is stored in Drupal state.

Use this module to keep your site lean, especially if you regularly upload large files or want to audit unused media.

3. Export the report to CSV at /admin/config/media/cleaner/export-csv.

No extra configuration is required. All actions are available from the admin interface.
