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 Front-end Editor version 2.3.1 as active, updated 13y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.6.
Overview
About this plugin
Front-end Editor is a plugin that lets you make changes to your content directly from your site. No need to load the admin backend just to correct a typo.
It makes the same capability checks, so that if a user isn’t allowed to edit something in wp-admin, they aren’t allowed to edit it in the front-end either.
You can edit posts, pages, custom post types, comments, widgets and many more elements.
Goals:
save as many trips to the backend as possible
compatible with any theme, out of the box
light and fast
Support and development:
Support is handled by the lovely designsimply.
I am not developing the plugin anymore; only applying the patches that other people send via Github.
Credits:
Aloha Editor for the fantastic WYSIWYG editing component
