# Patterns and parts - Pruneline 1.x documentation

> See where each synced pattern, template part and navigation menu is used, and trash the ones with no reference.

The block editor's reusable pieces pile up: synced patterns made once for a sale, template parts from an old design, navigation menus nobody picks any more. The **Patterns & parts** tab of **Tools → Pruneline** lists them with where each one is used.

![Patterns & parts: synced patterns, template parts and navigation menus, and where each one is used.](https://storage.extendiment.com/media/869/screenshot-4.png)

## What is listed

| Kind | What it is |
|---|---|
| **Synced pattern** | A pattern you saved as synced, in **Appearance → Editor → Patterns** or the block editor. |
| **Template part (theme)** | A header, footer or other part that comes with your block theme. |
| **Template part (made in the site editor)** | A part you or a plugin made in the site editor. |
| **Navigation menu** | A menu used by the Navigation block. |

Template parts are listed only with a block theme. Classic menus from **Appearance → Menus** aren't part of this list.

A piece counts as used when it is placed in content, in another pattern, in a template or template part, in a block widget, or in your theme's own template files.

## The columns

| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| **Name** | Its title. Click it to edit it. |
| **Kind** | One of the kinds above. |
| **Status** | Published, Draft and so on. |
| **Used** | **Used**, **No reference found**, or for a menu, **Shown by navigation blocks with no menu chosen**. |
| **Places** | How many places use it. **Where used** lists them. |

A Navigation block with no menu chosen shows your newest published menu. When your site has such blocks, that menu is marked **Shown by navigation blocks with no menu chosen**, and it counts as used.

## Move unused pieces to the Trash

1. Open **Patterns & parts** and click **No reference found**.
2. Tick the ones you don't need.
3. Choose **Move to Trash** under **Bulk actions**, then **Apply**.

You can restore them from the Trash. Template parts that come from your theme's files have no checkbox: they're part of the theme and can't be trashed.

> [!NOTE]
> Like templates, "No reference found" only means nothing Pruneline scanned uses it. A theme or plugin can still insert a pattern from its code. Check before you trash it.
