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 Easy Dashboard – Clean Admin Welcome Screen version 2.0.4 as active, updated 24d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.2.
Overview
About this plugin
Easy Dashboard replaces the standard WordPress dashboard with a focused welcome screen that is easier to use for administrators, editors, clients, and content teams.
Instead of widgets and clutter, users land on a clean dashboard with large menu tiles, a personalized greeting, faster access to content sections, and a layout that follows the current user’s role and capabilities.
Easy Dashboard is especially useful for websites with custom post types, editorial workflows, or client users who need a simpler and more guided admin experience.
Features include:
Replaces the default Dashboard screen with a custom welcome page.
Shows only the menu sections the current user can actually access.
Displays large tiles for posts, pages, media, custom post types, and admin sections.
Adds quick actions for content areas such as opening the list view or creating new content.
Supports custom post types automatically.
Includes a branded header with site logo, greeting, and optional tagline.
Includes an admin-only inline settings panel directly in the welcome page.
Lets administrators choose built-in color schemes or a custom two-color gradient.
Updates the header preview in real time while choosing colors.
Shows a pending updates notice for administrators when WordPress, plugins, or themes need updates.
Includes a quick button to open the WordPress command search.
Keeps a one-click link back to the classic WordPress dashboard.
Easy Dashboard aims to stay visually consistent with WordPress while making the first admin screen more useful and easier to understand.
