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.

Overview

About this plugin

Do you find it hard to quickly locate specific content in a long list of posts or pages? Mxwlsoft Post Row Colors lets you assign a custom background color to each post or page row in the WordPress admin list table. This helps you visually organize, distinguish, and highlight content.

Key features:

  • Color-coded rows – Set a different background color for each post/page row. Instantly spot what matters.
  • 10 built-in colors – Choose from soft red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, pink, light gray, or white.
  • Easy to use:
  • In the post editor, use the “Background Color” panel in the sidebar.
  • In the list table, use Quick Edit to change the color inline.
  • Use Bulk Edit to apply the same color to multiple posts at once.
  • No configuration – Activate and it works immediately. No settings page needed.

Use cases:

  • Mark important, pending, or featured posts.
  • Visually group content by category, author, or status (e.g., green = published, yellow = needs update, red = needs review).
  • Quickly spot specific entries in personal blogs or business websites.
