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 WPMS Sidebar Login Widget version 1.9.4 as active, updated 14y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.3.
Overview
About this plugin
If you are running a WPMS (Multisite) blogging network, the issue with most login widgets that you add to the main site’s sidebar is that it doesn’t pull the user’s own blog info. That is why the WPMS Sidebar Login Widget was created. Instead of the user trying to remember the login page of their own site/blog, when a user logs into your main site, the widget will conveniently contain links to navigate to 3 different pages of the user’s blog: dashboard, new post page, and profile page.
Features:
Link to Network Admin page (only shows if user logged in is a super admin)
Link to user’s dashboard
Link to user’s new post page
Link to user’s profile page
Link to forums page
Subblog registration detection
Custom CSS settings
To make sure it works, activate the User Switching plugin on the main site only to switch to a different user.
