Nova Media Cleaner is a professional-grade media library optimizer for WordPress. It helps you keep your site lean and fast by identifying duplicate images using advanced hash-based comparison, removing hidden bloat, and optimizing your media assets with one click.

It also finds the opposite problem: pages that point at media which is no longer there. After a migration or a re-import, images and icons often keep pointing at the old Media Library entry, and Elementor’s uploaded SVG icons in particular then render as empty space with nothing in WordPress to warn you. Nova Media Cleaner locates those references and puts them back, one at a time, with your approval.

Whether you’re running a small blog or a large e-commerce store, Nova Media Cleaner boosts your site performance, improves SEO, and lowers your server storage costs instantly.

Features

Duplicate Finder: Identify and remove twin images stretching your database storage.
Smart Comparison: Professional side-by-side view to compare duplicates before deletion.
Safe Cleanup: Automatic reference remapping ensures your posts and pages never have broken images.
Storage Analysis: See exactly which images are eating up your space with detailed file metadata.
WebP Conversion: Convert images to next-gen formats for up to 80% smaller file sizes.
Unassigned Media Finder: Scan and remove media files that are not attached or used in any posts, pages, or WooCommerce products.
Broken Media References: Find pages whose images and icons point at a Media Library item that no longer exists – the usual cause of Elementor SVG icons vanishing after a migration – and repoint them to the right file with one click. The scan is read-only and nothing changes until you approve each repair, which can be undone.
Smart Optimization: High-fidelity image compression without losing visual quality.
Unlimited Scanning: Process your entire library efficiently.
