Old backups, migration exports, and duplicate plugin bundles pile up on every WordPress site – and a full-site archive sitting in a public folder can expose your database credentials to anyone who guesses its URL. **ZIP Archive Scanner** walks your **entire WordPress file system** (not just uploads) and gives you a clean report of every ZIP archive it finds, so you can review each one and remove what you no longer need. The scan runs in small, timeout-safe batches, so it works even on huge sites and slow shared hosting. ### Free Features * **Full file system scan:** Batched and timeout-safe – works on huge sites and slow shared hosting. * **Risk assessment:** Archives in the web root or with backup-like names (`backup. zip`, `wp.zip`, `db.zip`…) are flagged high risk. * **Review everything:** File name, location, size, and last-modified date in a sortable, searchable table. * **One-click cleanup:** Delete an archive right from the dashboard, or copy its public URL to verify exposure. * **Export & bulk actions:** Export the report as CSV or Markdown and bulk delete unwanted archives. ### Pro Version The Pro version adds **Save Result** – save scan reports as named snapshots and review them anytime (up to 20 snapshots). ### How to Use – Quick Start 1. Install and activate **ZIP Archive Scanner**. 2. Open the plugin’s dashboard in wp-admin. 3. Click to start a full, timeout-safe scan of your file system. 4. Review the report – every archive with its location, size, and risk badge. 5. Delete unwanted archives with one click, or export the report as CSV/Markdown. ### Use Cases * **Post-migration cleanup:** Remove leftover migration exports and duplicate plugin bundles. * **Security review:** Spot full-site backups sitting in publicly accessible folders. * **Disk space recovery:** Find and delete large forgotten archives on crowded hosting plans. ### Development & Source Code The plugin’s admin dashboard is a React app compiled with @wordpress/scripts. The complete, uncompiled source is included in this plugin under the `src/` directory, together with `webpack.config.js` and `package.json`. To build from source: 1. The dashboard uses the shared open-source component library `bpl-tools` (GPL): https://github.com/bPlugins/bpl-tools — clone it as a sibling directory of this plugin (i.e. `wp-content/plugins/bpl-tools`). 2. Inside the plugin directory run `npm install`. 3. Run `npm run build` — the compiled files are written to `build/`. ## Pantaila-argazkiak [⌊Scan report — every archive with its location, size, and risk badge, plus CSV/ Markdown export, bulk delete, and one-click actions.

Open the plugin’s dashboard and start your first scan. ## MEG ### Does it scan inside the ZIP files? No. ZIP Archive Scanner locates archive files on disk so you can review and remove them. It never extracts or modifies archives. ### Will the scan slow down or time out my site? No. The scan runs in small time-boxed batches over the REST API, so it works within normal PHP execution limits even on very large installs. ### Which folders does the plugin scan? The entire WordPress file system – not just the uploads folder. Archives behind symlinked folders (such as symlinked uploads directories on managed hosting) are also scanned, with loop protection. ### Why are some archives flagged as high risk? Archives located in the web root or with backup-like names (`backup.zip`, `wp.zip`,` db.zip`…) are flagged high risk, because a publicly reachable full-site archive can expose sensitive data such as database credentials. ### Can I export the scan report? Yes. The scan report can be exported as CSV or Markdown, and bulk delete is available for cleaning up multiple archives at once. ### Can I scan for other archive types? Developers can extend the scanned extension list with the `bzas_scanned_extensions` filter. ## Berrikuspenak Ez dago berrikuspenik plugin honentzat. ## Laguntzaileak eta Garatzaileak “ZIP Archive Scanner – Free Up Disk Space and Reduce Security Risks” software librea da.
