        With the next update, there will be a way to scan your media library and remove unused images, but you will have to enable this feature first in Lay Options, and then you will find the page for it in Lay Options - Media Clean Up.

                  yes. the media cleanup process creates an update too. i also tested it and for me it worked! in the media cleanup page, you can import the backup, it only backs up deleted media and it simply re-adds it into the media library, so its a much smaller backup than a site-wide backup

                  but of course its better to to a site wide backup to be super sure.

                      alright so i made it more robust with yesterdays update and now it worked for me on bigger websites too

                      hmm seems like the scanning works fine on huge websites, but the deletion not yet -.-

                        Before you post:
                        1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
                        2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
                        3. Disable all Plugins
                        4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

                        This often solves issues you might run into

                        When you post:
                        1. Post a link to where the problem is
                        2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
                        3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
