Customize Your WordPress Dashboard Layout Easily
Dashboard Columns is a free WordPress plugin designed for users seeking to personalize their admin dashboard layout. Originally, the ability to change the number of columns in the dashboard was removed in WordPress 3.8, which simplified the user interface but limited customization options. This plugin addresses that need by allowing users to select their preferred column layout directly from the Screen Options menu.
With Dashboard Columns, users can choose from 1 to 4 columns on large screens, 1 or 2 columns on medium screens, and a single column layout on small screens. This flexibility ensures that the dashboard remains responsive while providing enhanced control over widget arrangement. The plugin operates seamlessly without requiring a dedicated options page, making it a straightforward solution for dashboard personalization.
