- WordPress Screenshot Lightbox is one of those extensions you don’t realize you need until you try it — and then you can’t imagine browsing WordPress.org without it. No more annoying new tabs every time I want to inspect a plugin screenshot. Instead, everything opens in a clean, native-style lightbox that feels like it should’ve been built into WordPress from the start.

- This extension fixes one of the most annoying things about WordPress.org clicking a plugin screenshot and getting blasted into a new tab like it’s 2008. With this tool, screenshots open in a clean, fullscreen lightbox right on the page. No clutter, no tab explosion, no broken workflow. If you browse plugins regularly (developers, designers, anyone building sites), this is an instant quality-of-life upgrade. Simple idea, flawless execution.
