With WordPress 2.5, A new Admin interface has come around. And while it looks great, A few design choices have been made which i dont agree with. The main one is setting the max-widdth on the pages to limit the horizontal span of the pages(Particually the edit pages).
The admin, Notice the whitespace on the right of the page?
I dont like the whitespace on the righthand side, and as a result, i’ve decided to write a short plugin to over-ride the width CSS, so that afterwards, The admin looks like this:
It is very much a personal choice if you like to have a wide window, or a smaller one, So my advice is that if you find the whitespace anoying, Give this a go, If its too wide, just disable the plugin and go on your merry way :)

Just wanted to leave a note of thanks for this plugin! All of that empty space was driving me somewhat batty and I can’t stand things crammed into corners where I can’t really see what’s going on. This plugin is THE easiest one to implement that I’ve ever come across. Activate and done! Thank you again – the time you took to create this – and the fact that you even thought of it!- are both appreciated immeasurably.
Cheers,
from another Aussie :)
