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.

WP PlugIndex currently records Custom Background Changer version 4.0 as active, updated 3mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.0.
Overview
About this plugin
Custom Background Changer lets you control the background of every post and page individually. Go far beyond plain colors with beautiful CSS gradients, full-screen background images, translucent color overlays, and looping MP4 video backgrounds — all from a premium tabbed settings panel right inside the post editor.

Solid Color – Pick any background color via the color picker.
CSS Gradient – Pick two colors and an angle to generate a smooth linear gradient.
Background Image – Upload an image with full control over attachment, repeat, position, and size (including cover/contain).
Color Overlay – Add a translucent color layer on top of your image or video to improve text readability.
MP4 Video Background – Set a looping, auto-playing, muted video as your page background.
Performance – CSS and JS assets load only on post/page edit screens in the admin. Zero impact on all other pages.
Secure – All input is sanitized. All output is properly escaped. Nonce-protected saves.
