Admin Toolbar Menus

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 · 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 call it simple and easy, say it saves clicks on custom post types and settings pages, and the only asks are extras like admin-side edit links and an always-visible toolbar.

   This is really helpful. You can make shortcuts to setting page of each plugin, specific post, external link, anything you want. If you are disgusted with many left menus, you should install it. solve problems with one click.

   I used this to add a dropdown of pages in the admin bar. It is good — simple and easy to use. It could be improved two ways: * add an option to always show the admin bar, even in “fullscreen” mode (I found another plugin to do this, for now) * add an option for a menu to output the admin edit links, rather than the front-end links (I had to use custom links which isn’t as easy to maintain)

   Hi, I must congratulate you for identifying this problem and putting this together. Simple and easy… perhaps you could build on it an make it more intuitive, like a drop down it is now, with all current admin items dynamically updates as they grow, so we would not need to go to the dashboard ever again… just a suggestion, but very helpful, a fresh breath of air

   Целых два дня искала что-то такое для оптимизации админки, и нашла у Вас. Творческих успехов Вам, огромное спасибо за плагин!!! Может быть, если пользователь залогинился как админ, меню бы направляло его на РЕДАКТИРОВАНИЕ рубрик, постов и страниц ( не ФРОНТ)? Было бы еще лучше This topic was modified 6 years, 9 months ago by lara77775. This topic was modified 6 years, 9 months ago by lara77775.
