Animate In View

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.

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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   I only wish there was a fade animation effect available, but this is an amazing little lightweight plugin anyway. And user-friendly too. =) Just one thing: if you deactivate the plugin, you have to remake the blocks to which you had applied the animation effect.

   The idea that it would be nice to implement (in certain client pages) a fading/sliding component, was one of those things somewhere lower down on my general to-do list. Yes, I could have searched out a plugin, or created my own classes and remember to add them in, but I never quite got around to it… Then I saw on WP Tavern a mention of ‘Animate in View’. It’s great! It does what it says on the tin and in a modern WordPress block way. (Just a word of advice for anyone that uses it, remember to drag your blocks out of the Animate in View wrapper, if you decide not to use it on a certain section, as you can’t toggle it on and off, and removing the wrapper from the Block Editor will also remove what’s inside). Animate in View is now joining my personal collection of handy “utility” blocks. Good Work!
