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.

Known Issues

Storage Account Versions

Storage accounts can be created via CLI, classic Azure portal, or the new Azure portal,

with varying results.

If a Storage account is created with the new Azure portal, authentication will fail,

resulting in the inability to view/add containers or files. Creating a Storage account

with the Azure CLI should allow the plugin to work with new Storage accounts.

Responsive Images in WordPress 4.4

Images uploaded to the Azure Storage service will not automatically receive responsive versions.

Images added through the WordPress Media Loader should get automatically converted to responsive

images when inserted into a post or page.

We are investigating options for full support of responsive images in the plugin.
