20261 release

  1. DX Delete Attached Media 2.1.0Latest

    • New: media that is still used elsewhere is no longer deleted. Besides featured images and files in post content, the plugin now checks excerpts, classic [gallery] shortcodes, Easy Image Gallery galleries, WooCommerce product galleries, posts of every status except Trash, and every post type, includ…
    • New: the dx_dam_delete_post_attachments filter keeps the media of a post when it returns false. The delete callback is now named dx_dam_delete_attachments; code that removed the old delete_attachments callback should use this filter.
    • New: the Trash screen shows how many media files are attached to each post.
    • Fixed: opening the plugin’s media list could detach media from posts whose post type wasn’t registered at that moment (for example products while WooCommerce was deactivated), so that media was never deleted with its post. The list now only displays.
    • Improved: the settings page uses the standard WordPress layout, and confirms changes on the page instead of pop-up alerts.
    • Fixed: a settings change could be lost when saving took longer than a second (the page reloaded too early).
    • Fixed: deleting a post without the trash (WP-CLI –force, the REST API, EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS set to 0, or another plugin deleting posts) left its media behind, orphaned. That media is now deleted too, unless it is used elsewhere.
    • Fixed: the media list page stopped with a fatal error on PHP 8 when a media item had no file.
    • Security: escaped admin output and validated the settings request.
    • Prefixed the plugin’s global functions and AJAX action to avoid conflicts with other plugins.
    • Scripts and styles now load only on the plugin’s own screens.
    • Tested with WordPress 7.1, PHP 7.4 to 8.5.
