Was looking for a way to see what files were adding to the overall size of my clients site. This tool solved that. THANK YOU! The one part that tripped me up was going to Media > File Tools and clicking the “Get Files Size” button. Otherwise it did not provide me the sizes upon activating the plugin. Only thing that tripped me up. Otherwise, super handy tool! Keep up the good work 🙂

Great addon for the Media Library. Helps hugely if you need to clean out oversized files. Still seems to work without problems.
