    Hi,

    Our server appears to be packed with multiple (identical) copies of media files, such as banners and product images. We’ve never encountered this to this extent since we’ve been working with xstore. Can it be related? If so, can you advise on media removal in WP-Admin? With a cleanup in the WP admin backend, do the copies get deleted as well?

    Hello @Bas Kling,

    Our theme does not include functionality to duplicate images, so this issue is likely related to WooCommerce or WordPress itself. At this time, we do not have any ready-made plugins or solutions to help remove duplicated images. However, if you find a useful tool or method, please share your results with us so that other customers may also benefit from your solution.

    Best regards,
