Unattached Media – hard to find in new user interface

  • Unknown's avatar

    As an admin on my site, I can go through WP Admin > Media > Library and then filter to ‘Unattached’ to see all my media which has not been included on a post.
    Other admin’s on this site have the new user interface when they access this page and there is no way to filter to unattached media.
    Do you know a way they can view unattached media?

    Our media library is out of control and we are having a hard time keeping track of images we have used before.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Other Admins? Only one Admin per blog is recommended and that with good reason. https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator I have been here nearly 10 years and have seen many hissy fits that grew into spats where the recommendation was ignored and the blog was maliciously deleted be a co-Admin. When that happens Staff cannot and will not restore the delete site and the uRLcannot be recycled and used again for 2 years.

    I typed modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread for a Staff response.

    Oops! Edit: be a co-Admin was meant to be by a co-Admin

    Hello taramulhall!

    Unfortunately, the Media Library menu isn’t available in the new interface yet. They can reach that page by adding “/wp-admin/upload.php” to the end of the blog address. Like “http://taramulhall.wordpress.com/wp-admin/upload.php”.
