4.7%

of downloads still active

At least 20K of 424.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,263 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 1 release in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    This is a Near Perfect solution for adding bulk changes to my theme’s width. But with the Draftly theme my featured image vanishes from the top of all posts. So cannot use this out of the box. Not yet sure how to resolve. But will figure it out by days end. I hope 🙁 Oh. To change appearance of all posts at once… Go to WP Admin. Go to Posts → All Posts. Tick the checkbox of every post that you want to edit. In the “Bulk actions” dropdown, select “Edit”. Press “Apply”. In the form that appears, select the new template in the “Template” dropdown. Press “Update”. …then wait a minute or two for your database and cache to get the clue of all the changes. Credit for those seven steps goes to Robert Anderson (@noisysocks) in another WordPress.org support post.

    When selecting the option to remove the sidebar it goes into “full width” mode instead of keeping the ‘boxed’ mode and the theme (Muzeum) used on the website is totally messed up for the page in question. Text starts with zero margin at left and ends at right with zero. Didn’t work well for me on the site I was using it on.

    I was sad to see this didn’t work with our configuration, maybe it’s too complicated. All I see is a regular template or a Slider Revolution blank template but I need a fullwidth template that includes the header and footer.

    Entweder waren die ausgewählten Templates zu schmal oder der Seitenaufbau gefiel nicht. Mit dieser Erweiterung habe ich eine simple Lösung gefunden. Vielen Dank

    I had a problem with the sidebar and this plugin solved it 90%. A great job, congratulations! Although it does not work on the store page, and not on the blog, any solution?

    It was easy to install and get a full-width page. So it accomplishes what it sets out to do. However, 100% full width looks a bit awkward. It would be much better to have an in-between option, say 80%. Or, ideally, be able to specify exactly how much of a border to have. There is some discussion in the forum about this but the suggested solution did not work for me.

    Nice extension, but… This intro leads to believe that comments can still be enabled in “No sidebar” mode, while this does make the comment-form disappear.
