⚡ Cleanup Rules

Cleanup Rules let you define conditions that MediaVault evaluates automatically every day. Files matching a rule’s conditions have the rule’s action applied without manual effort.

Conditions available: MIME type, file size, upload age, days unlinked, tag, filename contains.

Actions available: Move to Recycle Bin, Backup then move to Recycle Bin, Permanently delete.

Tick “Email me when this rule fires” on any rule to receive a notification. The notification email template is fully customisable in Settings & Stats → Notify tab.

Always click Preview before saving a new rule to see exactly which files would be affected.
