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 TM Replace Howdy version 1.4.2 as active, updated 10y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.4.
Overview
About this plugin
The Replace Howdy Plugin is designed to replace the word “Howdy” in the WordPress admin area/admin bar with something else. By default it randomly pulls from a list of several replacement words and phrases such as “Hello”, “Welcome”, and “Get to the choppa”. The plugin also comes with a menu where you can limit it to professional sounding greetings, set a static word or phrase, or add your own list (which can be by itself or added into the default list for even more variety)!
List of replacement words/phrases
Professional greetings, also part of the default list
Chow,
Hello,
Aloha,
Bonjour,
Welcome,
Greetings,
Konnichiwa,
Default list
Get to the choppa,
Live long and prosper,
We require a shrubbery,
May the force be with you,
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain,
Wassap,
Don’t mind me,
Looking good today,
Eat all your vegetables,
I can see you right now,
I can hear you breathing,
Have you showered recently,
There is a ninja behind you,
Do you know what time it is,
Wipe that grin off your face,
Don’t make me come down there,
You just gained +5 WordPress skills,
I know you are sitting at a computer,
Did you remember to brush your teeth,
Did you put on clean underwear this morning,
Don’t read this directly or you will get a lazy eye,
A word on support and additional features
Due to time constraints, I am not able to keep up with this plugin as much as I would like. If you want to help keep it up do date, feel free to create a pull request on the GitHub repo!
