Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Better Widgets version 0.3 as active, updated 12y ago and without a listed Tested up to version.
Overview
About this plugin
Lets make widgets better. This plugin moves your wigdet areas (some call them sidebars) to the left, making them the focus of the screen. The list of available widgets now lives on the right.
Available widgets are contained in their own scrollable div, helping resolve the age-old problem of scrolling and dragging. And widgets get some icons!
Your active widgets get a little love, too. Saving a widget no closes the controls, and you’ll get some feedback that your widget has saved.
This plugin is under active development and may break some things. Also, its not very friendly across various screen sizes, yet.
