Media File Sizes

Description

This plugin adds a column to the Media Library page that displays the total space used by each media item. For images, this includes the original image as well as any other generated sizes.

This plugin is particularly handy for networks where site owners have a limited space quota.

Additionally, sorting your Media Library by file size is actually a great way to identify duplicate media items.

Screenshots

  • A sortable column is added to the Media Library which displays the total space used by this media item (including generated sizes for image files). If a quota is in effect, a color-coded percentage is displayed, based on what percent of the quota this media item is using.

Installation

Standard Installation Procedure

  1. Upload media_file_sizes.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

I REALLY needed this, to be able to identify the largest images, and I'm glad to see it still works in April of 2018

I would prefer just one file size to be shown initially as two or three different ones are perhaps just confusing for my client, and could equally be shown on hover or something like that. Very useful and simple. does what it says on the tin.

Open Notpad editor Paste these two lines upload_max_filesize = "512M" post_max_size = "512M" save is as php.ini upload its on your root directory where WordPress install and also upload in wp-admin folder. As well as you can increase your file size to whatever you want.. Examples 256 MB upload_max_filesize = "256M" post_max_size = "256M" 1-GB upload_max_filesize = "1024M" post_max_size = "1024M" 10 GB upload_max_filesize = "10240M" post_max_size = "10240M" i am using WordPress 4.1 same formula I use from last 2 years Thanks Umair www.eBusiness.pk http://facebook.com/umairulhaqusmani http://facebook.com/ebusinessexperts
