Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about HK Media Optimizer.

Does this plugin delete files automatically?

No. It never deletes anything on its own. It only flags files as unused — you choose what to delete, and must explicitly confirm before any permanent removal happens.

Can I undo a deletion?

No, deletion is permanent once confirmed. Always back up your site before bulk-deleting media.

Will this slow down my site?

No — its code only loads on its own admin pages and during the AJAX requests triggered by “Start Scan.” It has no effect on front-end page load times.

Does it work with ACF?

Yes. If ACF is detected as active, the plugin adds an additional check for media referenced inside ACF field values.
