Active installations3K+Adoption metric — not a quality score

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. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records WP-Slimbox2 Plugin version 1.1.3.1 as active, updated 8y ago and without a listed Tested up to version.
Overview
About this plugin
A WordPress implementation of the stellar Slimbox2 script by Christophe Beyls (an enhanced clone of the Lightbox script) which utilizes the jQuery library to create an impressive image overlay with slide-out effects.
Almost, if not all, options are configurable from the administration panel. For more on the settings and what they do check out the Slimbox2 page.
Support forums are generously hosted by Ryan Hellyer of PixoPoint, here.
