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 Genesis Custom Backgrounds version 0.4 as active, updated 14y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.2.

Overview

About this plugin

By default, Genesis doesn’t turn on WordPress Custom Backgrounds. Genesis Custom Backgrounds enables custom backgrounds and creates an option to enable selection of a default background from the sets of backgrounds provided by StudioPress. Currently, it is broken down to Dark and Light backgrounds with subfolders.

You can easily provide the user more options by simply uploading more backgrounds with in either the light or dark folders. png (in all lowercase). Furthermore, you can also upload a custom background via the WordPress Custom Background via Appearance > Background.

You can easily add customization ability for the site to easily switch default backgrounds or upload their own (which will always overwrite the default).

Special Thanks

I owe a huge debt of gratitude to all the folks at StudioPress, their themes make life easier.
