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 LumaSwitch version 1.4.2 as active, updated 15d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.

Overview

About this plugin

LumaSwitch provides a lightweight light/dark mode experience for WordPress sites. Visitors can switch between light and dark themes, follow their operating-system preference, and optionally remember their choice in the browser.

Administrators can configure the frontend switch, colors, positions, sizes, transitions, and a strong theme override. An optional administrator-only switch can also change the WordPress dashboard between light and dark mode.

The plugin does not require an external service, CDN, analytics platform, tracking script, or remote executable code.

Features

  • Light, dark, and system modes.
  • Optional remembered visitor preference using browser localStorage.
  • Twelve fixed frontend toggle styles.
  • Eight toggle positions and three sizes.
  • Separate light and dark color controls.
  • Background, surface, heading, text, muted, link, border, input, placeholder, button, hover, and accent colors.
  • Strong theme override for common WordPress, Elementor, WooCommerce, form, card, navigation, and layout surfaces.
  • Optional WordPress administrator light/dark theme switcher.
  • AJAX settings saving without a full page reload.
  • AJAX settings-tab navigation.

Privacy
