Custom Content Width

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   This is a very helpful plugin. My galleries were only 500 px wide and my theme said it was not their problem. My only question is…will there be an update? Wordfence is going to email me every day now to tell me this plugin has been abandoned. It works perfectly though…and I don’t know how to update the php file on my own.

   My mosaic galleries were being displayed at the default 500px width because of my theme, and I couldn’t figure out how to fix it. This plugin did the trick. Thanks1

   While the basics work well, it has a side-effect impacting the generation of custom thumb sizes.

   The sourcecode is nice and readable. A quick audit reveals everything you need to know about the plugin. It does what it should and does it very robustly.

   Thanks for this plugin! It fixed a problem I had on a Genesis 2 site with the width of Jetpack tiled galleries. Without installing it, the tiled gallery wouldn’t expand past its 500px default width even though I’d entered the content width manually in functions.php as instructed. Andrea
