Unused images report showing linked images

Post by JHolmes2022ukg »

I ran the unused images report to clean up our project, and I got a huge list, which seemed odd. I went to the first image on the list in the Content Explorer, and used the Link Viewer, which also showed that the image had no incoming links. However, when I checked in the topic, the image was there. When I renamed the image just to see if it would break in the topic, it did.

So, why would Flare tell me an image is not linked when it obviously is? I've checked a number of images in the report, and they truly are linked to a topic. Any ideas? Or is this a bug? I've never had a problem with the report before, and I ran it maybe a month or two ago, and it was accurate then. I don't remember when the update came out, but I'm running Flare 2023.

Thanks in advance!

I'd suggest deleting the Analyzer database - that's what Flare uses for its analysis/reports, and it sometimes gets corrupted.

To do that, close Flare, find your project files in Windows Explorer, and delete the Analyzer folder.
When you next open that project, Flare will rebuild the Analyzer database, and hopefully that will fix your analysis/reports.
