Delete images from disabled products

[nickon]

Hi all, I am looking to free some space on my server I have about 10000 products and the img folder is getting to big.

So I am trying to find a way to clean up automatically disabled products or at least the images of them.

Does anyone have a solution?

Kind regards Nick

Why not delete the products if you want to clean up the images?

[nickon]

@dosbiner that would be the best solution. But it has to be automated

10k products, I think it can be done using manual approach. - set auto disable product if stock = 0 using simple script - on products catalog page sort only disabled products - change the view products to 1000 (decrease if your hosting cannot handle displaying 1000 products) - mark all products > delete

@dosbiner yes that is how I do it now. But products are added and disabled every day so I need to automatically do this

[dosbiner]

Ah I see, auto delete products. I think it can be done using module but can't find one. Maybe someone have another thoughts

Can you not use a media server under performance , or have I go t the wrong end of the stick for what this is used for
