What is the current best method to search the app for a specific plugin to see if it’s being used or not? I’ve noticed one I don’t recognise/remember installing and don’t THINK it’s being used but would like to know for sure before deleting it. I’ve looked at the master search tool, but no luck. I also exported the site as the JSON file and searched that, thinking it would show plugins - but it doesn’t seem to.
(on that note how does the JSON rebuild itself with the correct plugins? has anyone ever tried to re-load a whole project from the Json site-export tool?)
Hey @asked111 ,
Go to Settings → General → App file management → Optimize application
It’ll tell you which plugins are unused in your application - among other things of course.

App JSON is everything in the editor, including your plugin settings, API settings, data schema etc. Everything except your files and data itself. Exporting JSON and reimporting the same JSON should yield no change.

Thanks guys.
Optimize application hasn’t flagged it as being unused, however it’s not really helping me find ‘where’ it’s being used, which is what I am looking for.
Regarding the JSON, ok that’s good to know. In that case I would have expected the plugin names to show in it, but i guess they are just represented with unique IDs or something instead, which makes sense.
