Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview
About this plugin
SJF Cleaner is a free all-in-one cleanup tool for WordPress administrators.
It helps you find typical technical leftovers in a WordPress installation and remove them in a controlled way. The plugin focuses on transparency: it shows what was found first, then lets you decide what should be deleted.
No cleanup action runs automatically in the background. Always create a full backup of files and database before deleting files or database entries.
Main features
Plugin leftovers: list inactive plugin directories with file count, size and directory date.
Database cleanup: remove revisions, auto-drafts, trashed posts, spam comments, orphaned meta data and expired transients.
Media duplicates: find exact duplicate media files using MD5 hash comparison of the original file.
Unused media: find media files not attached to posts and not referenced in content, featured images or post meta.
Draft media: find media files attached to old unpublished draft content.
Large files: list oversized images, videos and other uploads based on configurable thresholds.
Themes: list installed themes and protect the active theme and parent theme from deletion.
Transients: group transients by source prefix and show count, size and expired entries.
Broken attachments: find media library entries whose file no longer exists on the server.
URL checker: check links in published posts and pages for HTTP availability.
