Multisite Custom CSS

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

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.

   Works perfectly, allows admin to tweak their site’s CSS. I found that this plugin doesn’t need to be activated network-wide: you can let admins decide to activate it whether they need it. The custom CSS rules will stay even when the plugin is deactivated. They can always be edited by a network superuser. This topic was modified 5 years ago by Bigue Nique.

   Very useful. I support a great many sites and several of the individual site admins were keen to tweak the CSS. This is a great solution!

   This works very well to allow my site admins the ability to use the built in CSS editor. We were using a separate plugin for this which has been deprecated. Thank you so much for this great plugin.
