ACF Content Analysis for Yoast SEO

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 76% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price.

Older reviewers thanked the plugin for wiring ACF into Yoast, while the recent ones say the analysis fields simply don't show up and nobody answers on the support forum.

   Nice little plugin for better integration with ACF. But this should really be integrated into the main Yoast SEO plugin! Has this every been discussed?

   I installed the plugin does not work with Yoast. The new fields I added in the acf extension do not appear in Yoast.

   The docs for this plugin say there is a box in the search appearance tab where you can add ‘Custom fields to include in page analysis’ but that box is no longer included in the plugin. I’ve installed it on three sites now, including one with no other plugins installed other than Yoast, so it doesn’t look like a compatibility issue. No answers on the plugin support page and Yoast will only look into issues for premium subscribers unfortunately. Very frustrating.

   Since a while now (WP 5.5 update), this plugin doesn’t work anymore. Word count stays on 0 for all pages and post types. This topic was modified 5 years, 10 months ago by webtailor.

   The “Text box” field is not analyzed. The “Readability” part is not activated. Is there a problem with this plugin? @yoast This topic was modified 6 years, 1 month ago by Ludovic Dind. This topic was modified 6 years, 1 month ago by Ludovic Dind.
