 * Hello,
 * I just installed on a WPMU site but did NOT Network Activate the plugin. Instead,
   I activated it only at main site. I scanned but as there are no results (my installation
   is quite fresh so probably no media to delete) it is difficult to say whether
   the plugin scans also network sites (/uploads/sites/) from within the main site.
 * In any case, the plugin seems to run properly but it would be interesting to 
   know whether it scans all network sites.
 * What is the best way to insert a file that is not used in order to test it? Just
   upload a file in media library without inserting it anywhere and then scan?

 * By the way, did you have the chance to try? It doesn’t scan the other site, right?

 * Right.
    I only activated at main site and I can confirm it only scans the files
   for that site and not the others. Works just fine (once you found out where the
   settings are…)!

 * Hi Jordy,
 * I think I spoke too fast…
    I checked again at the main site of the WPMU installation
   and I now see that there are media reported that are in fact belonging to network
   sites.
 * Maybe you should check this further.
    The usual (default?) media folder structure
   is that the main site has its media under the /uploads/ folder – the same as 
   any other standard WP installation – while all other network sites have their
   own folders under /uploads/sites/ and each one with a new subfolder taking the
   network’s site id number: /uploads/sites/1/, /uploads/sites/2/, /uploads/sites/
   3/, etc…
 * I don’t know how you may set this up but probably with something referring to
   the each site’s ID number.
