## Description

When you insert images in WordPress, it’s always a specific image size. It can be
an image size such as Medium, Large or something else set by your theme or another
plugin. When you update your media sizes settings (or switch theme), you need to
regenerate those images (with Regenerate Thumbnails, for example). But what about
your posts content? They will be still using the old images, which aren’t actually
part of the new metadata, and little by little your WordPress will become more and
more broken. This plugin fixes this by regenerating the HTML for your thumbnails/
images in your content and keeps everything clean. Once this is done, it’s a good
idea to run a tool like Media Cleaner (https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-cleaner/)
on your install to detect the useless files.

**_Be careful!_**. Before using this plugin, backup your database! It doesn’t modify
your files, only database.

Does the job and saves a lot of work when migrating sites or changing themes! Looking
forward for additional options to select images by height or by class. Thanks!!
