Image Sizes in Admin Dashboard adds a read-only widget to the WordPress admin Dashboard that lists all currently registered image sizes.
Any size you register in your theme or plugin with add_image_size() is picked up automatically, alongside the built-in thumbnail , medium , medium_large and large sizes. Each row shows:
- The image size name (human readable)
- Width in pixels (— when unconstrained)
- Height in pixels (— when unconstrained)
- Crop mode (Cropped or Proportional)
This is handy when building a theme and you need a quick reference of the exact dimensions available to the_post_thumbnail() and the media library.

Frequently asked questions.
Who can see the widget?
Only users with the manage_options capability (administrators by default).
My custom size is not listed
Make sure add_image_size() runs on the after_setup_theme or init hook in your theme or plugin so the size is registered before the Dashboard loads.
