Admin Menu Groups

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

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

Reviewers say it does exactly what it promises, cleaning up and grouping the admin menu with drag and drop, and one confirms it still works on recent PHP and WordPress, though a couple would like more control over levels and icons plus a sign the plugin's still being updated.

   Does an excellent job doing exactly what I wanted to, organize and group my admin menu. If I could ask for anything additional, the ability to disable icons on main level items added to the second level, and the ability to move items between levels, ie. move items from the third level to the second level. But overall, this solves exactly what I wanted to do.

   Works w/ PHP 8.3 + WP6.6.1 Since references that I can find for WP core for menu items go back to early 2010, I don’t think this plugin has to be updated frequently. It does the job real quick. I super appreicate the dev’s effort on this.

   It works perfect. I can even drag and hide each item, which is more than I expected to find. It’s excellent.
