Biggest opportunity: Swap “elementor” for “testimonial carousel”. “elementor” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “testimonial carousel” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

5.4%

of downloads still active

At least 2K of 37K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,272 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    The free version of the plugin offers very limited functionality, with even the most basic customization options blocked. Unfortunately, it’s difficult to evaluate its true potential without upgrading. It seems like a solid plugin if you’re willing to invest in the premium version.

    The plugin is free, but to do anything with it you must pay.

    You can’t turn off any of the display options (title, image, name, etc.,) or use the text editor without purchasing the pro version. Most of the testimonials I receive don’t include an image (I don’t know many people that provide a headshot when providing a testimonial) but I can’t turn off the display of the image, so I either have to use a placeholder image or if I delete it then I get a spinning icon in it’s place.

    It asks you to upgrade to premium for even the simplest features. And there are premium upgrade ads everywhere. You are constantly exposed to ads. Many features don’t work as they should. Not compatible enough. A complete waste of time This topic was modified 3 years, 3 months ago by Harun Sekmen.
