  • Working OK on V7.0

    A 'must have' plugin and so far working well on V7.0. Note: Before clicking on File Size you must first index the Library!

  • A great plugin

    We use this plugin with a large Wordpress site, where multiple users add images. We keep this plugin installed so everyone can easily see if images are too large.Love the ability to sort the media library by file size.

  • Handy Little Plugin

    Nice addition to the feature set of the WP Media library. Helpful to identify large media files that are taking up server space. Great work!

  • No sorting and incomplete immage size listing

    Generally great plugin, just the extension in the Media Library (Medienübersicht) that shows you the size of each immage. But it only shows the size of the latest 60 immages. All that comes after (Bevore may 2022) has no sizes. Also the sorting by immage size does not work. I hope this plugin will improve over time!

  • Better than basic media manager

    I needed something that helped me manage my uploaded files. I found the default media manager in wordpress a little lacking and was happy to try a few out. This is the one that I stuck with as it seems to do exactly what I need.
