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 Glitter Bomb version 1.0.1 as active, updated 8mo ago and tested up to WordPress 6.9.
Overview
About this plugin
Haven’t you ever wondered what the world would be like if GeoCities worked on your phone? Glitter Bomb brings interactive cursor effects and confetti-style particle fields to WordPress — with touch support that actually works. com/glitter-bomb.
✨ Sprinkle Trail Mode
Particles follow your cursor on desktop and your finger on mobile with smooth gesture tracking. Choose between compact trails or scattered drifting patterns.
💫 Particle Field Mode
Your entire page becomes a canvas of shimmering glitter. Particles drift, attract to your cursor or touch, and explode into sparkles on click or tap.
Honest assessment: No site needs this. It adds JavaScript, it competes with your content, and enabling it by default on a checkout page would be irresponsible. On a hero section, birthday page, portfolio, or anywhere a little extra is exactly right?
Absolutely your call.
Features:
Touch-optimized from the start — particle trails follow your finger, tap triggers explosions, separate sizing controls for mobile vs. desktop, and an option to disable on mobile entirely
Built with Telex and Claude Code. com/glitter-bomb.
