Media Verdict

Media Verdict scans your whole site — post content (all post types, drafts and revisions), post meta (featured images, WooCommerce galleries, Elementor data), term meta, user meta, options (widgets, customizer, logo, site icon) and builder/slider sources (Smart Slider 3, Revolution Slider, LayerSlider, Master Slider, Visual Composer, WPBakery, Cornerstone, Oxygen) — and tells you which media library items are in use and which have no detected usage. Fail-safe by design:

• When in doubt, an item is marked as used.
• The UI says "no detected usage", never "guaranteed unused" — no scanner can see dynamic references (hardcoded CSS, JS-built URLs, email templates).
• Deletion always creates a ZIP snapshot first (original + all generated sizes, with md5 manifest).
• Deletion always goes to the WordPress trash, never forced.
• One-click restore from the snapshot, with integrity verification.

In the Media Library (grid and list modes) used items get a green frame and unused-detected items a red frame with a badge; hovering or clicking shows the evidence ("Used in: Post #123, Product #45"). WP-CLI: wp media-verdict scan|list|snapshot|trash|restore|report.

0.4.1

• New: 12 more usage parsers — Elementor, Divi, ACF, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Breakdance, Fusion Builder (Avada), Meta Box, Toolset, Spectra, Kadence Blocks and SiteOrigin Page Builder. 20 parsers total, all fail-safe (they can only mark files as in use, never as unused).

0.4.0

• New: Filesystem scan — walks the uploads directory and flags files with no media library entry (orphans + orphaned derivatives such as thumbnails, retina and WebP whose master is gone). Quarantine zips files into a snapshot first; nothing is deleted outright.
• New: Duplicate detection — SHA-256 hashing during the filesystem scan, with a compare-and-resolve view to keep one file per group and snapshot the rest.
• New: References ledger — every usage reference from the last scan in one searchable table, with one-click CSV export for audit trails.
• Plugin header now ships Plugin URI and Author URI (linked author + plugin name in the plugins list).

0.3.2

• Internationalization: all user-facing strings are now English source strings with full Spanish (es_ES) translation shipped in languages/ (media-verdict.pot included for translators). The UI follows the site language automatically — no manual switch needed.
• WordPress.org review compliance: renamed the internal AJAX action prefix from mv_ to media_verdict_ (plus nonces, script handles and related identifiers) to meet the directory prefixing guideline; readme Contributors now uses the WordPress.org username and the short description was shortened to 145 characters.

0.3.1

• Fixed: scans started from wp-admin lost all evidence between AJAX requests (the driver creates a new scanner per request) and marked everything as unused. Evidence is now persisted per batch in the media_verdict_scan_evidence option and merged back before finalizing, so admin scans produce the same verdicts as CLI scans.

0.3.0

• New builder parsers: Cornerstone (_cornerstone_data "ID:size" attachment references) and Oxygen (ct_builder_json numeric attachment_ids, with stripslashes for its escaped JSON). Both detected and verified against real test pages.
• Builder coverage is now: Smart Slider 3, Revolution Slider, LayerSlider, Master Slider, Visual Composer, WPBakery, Cornerstone, Oxygen — plus Divi, Beaver Builder and Depicter via the generic content matcher.

0.2.0

• Builder/slider parsers: Smart Slider 3, Revolution Slider, LayerSlider, Master Slider, the new Visual Composer and classic WPBakery shortcodes — each with its own storage format (custom tables, escaped JSON, base64 blobs, template placeholders). Filterable registry (media_verdict_parsers).
• Fixed: URL normalizer regex that silently broke every URL-based match.
• Settings: new "Parsers activos" list showing which builders were detected on the site.

0.1.0

• Initial release: detection engine, library overlays, snapshot/trash/restore flow, WP-CLI.
