I’ve been looking for this feature for years! I’ve finally found it… really useful plugin, well done and working, so I don’t have to delete each file manually any more!

Very useful plugin! I recommend checking whether the images your plugin is about to delete are attached to other posts. Otherwise, you might accidentally remove images you intended to keep. Additionally, it’s best to display a clear warning message before deletion to prevent unintended data loss.

Absolutely a must-have for not taking up unnecessary server space. it should be integrated into wordpress! Deletes attachments automatically when articles are deleted.
