Adminimize

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 · 97% 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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

Older reviewers call it a huge help for locking down the dashboard, while the newer ones find the UX unclear and worry the plugin's been left to sit without updates, with reports of a select2 error and a broken media library.

   I am using your development, I find it super, but I have found these observations, for example I cannot hide the duplicator plugin from the menu I also found the following error in the browser log when I entered to configure adminimize Uncaught TypeError: $(...).select2 is not a function

   Avevo un problema di gestione degli accessi ai calendari di prenotazione appuntamenti che richiedevano l’accesso come amministratore ma questo voleva ire lasciare agli utenti non esperti la possibilità di modificare una serie di opzioni che rischiavano di rendere instabile il progetto realizzato. Con questo Plug-in sembra che sia riuscito a risolvere il problema. Ora lo testerò ancora per un mesetto e poi se tutto va come sembra sarò felice di contribuire al suo sviluppo con una donazione. Per il momento posso solo ringraziare il Team che ha realizzato il prodotto. GRAZIE a tutti voi per il lavoro svolto.

   I migrated a site between hosts and did the wp-config.php update for the database. To complicate things, I changed the domain name, too. The site ran OK, but when I went to use the WP editor the Admin Bar at the top of the editor had some links from the old domain. I didn’t try to find out where those values were saved. Instead, I tried the plugin, and it saved me big time. There were around 10 different references to the old domain on that top bar (wp-admin-bar), and I was able to update all of them, and even save the changes. I had to log out of WordPress and back in but all of the links are updated to the new domain, including the profile-related ones in the upper right hand corner. In short, it works, and saved me a ton of time. I’m going to donate now. So happy. Thanks!!
