About Admin Column View Selector Project on Cloodo
Loading...Category for Admin Column View Selector
I didn’t even realise the multi-column choice in dashboard had been removed until now when i started a new install (all my other websites already had it, installed before this change, so i had my 2 columns anyway). Really, wordpress devs, there’s this pattern of removing simple, useful functionality — why?
Now my admin screen is back to normal, thank you thank you.
Here is some good extra information:

(I wanted to reply to these, but “this topic is closed to new replies” — well that puts a damper on the conversation, doesn’t it?)

I totally agree with all the “complainers” there. If WordPress wants to optimise for responsive, that’s great. So add it as a choice — don’t remove things. That’s how you treat toddlers. We are not toddlers. We can handle choices and complexity, yes we can.
