Allows plugins and themes to be updated using the standard WordPress plugin or theme update process.
When you want to update a custom plugin or theme but don’t have an automated process 
then you can use this plugin to allow you to install a new version of a plugin or theme 
without having to delete the existing plugin or theme.
Tested with WordPress 6.4 and WordPress MultiSite. 
Note: This plugin is no longer necessary. WordPress core functionality allows you to update existing plugins and themes.

In WordPress 5.3, several improvements were made to how images are processed. One of these improvements was the concept of “BIG images”. When an image is uploaded that exceeds the “BIG image” threshold (2560 by default), a new “full” size image is generated. This new image is then used instead of the true original when generating image subsizes to reduce server load.
Prior to 5.3, it was possible for the originally uploaded image to be displayed on the front-end, even when they were not “web ready”. Unnecessarily large images can be bad for performance and wastes bandwidth (which is unfortunate for those with slow Internet, or bandwidth caps by their service plans). This new full size image will now be displayed instead.
There are some scenarios where disabling this threshold would be desired, though. Maybe you run a photography site that 
needs to display original images, or your theme has full screen backgrounds.
This plugin disables the “BIG” image threshold and preserves the true originally uploaded image as the full size.
