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 SBD Aside version 0.03 as active, updated 13y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.5.

Overview

About this plugin

I recommend against using this plugin with the WordPress Visual Editor, as I have not tested it with the visual editor, and will not support the use of the plugin through the Visual Editor.

Nice features of SBD Aside include:

  • HTML 5 Support. SBD Aside uses the HTML 5 semantic tag <aside> to play well with search engines and content aggregators.
  • Choose left or right placement on the page.
  • Choose expanded (“open”) style, or collapsible.
  • collapsible ones like on the top right of this page can be collapsed or expanded by the reader as required.
  • Choose round corners or square cut.
  • Choose background colour.
  • Choose width in pixels or percent.
  • Choose from one of two caption underline styles.
  • Display a caption
  • All of the above options/settings are optional. Define your own defaults in the plugin’s setting page.
  • The styling for the aside is compact, with a small font and low margins. This minimises space disruption to the main article.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
