Archivarix External Images Importer

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 · 33% 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.

   Works great! I imported several posts into a site running WordPress 5.9.3 with Gutenberg and the Archivarix External Images Importer plugin imported the external images without any issues. I’ve tested a few other image importer plugins but none of them had the ability to scan a site and import from existing content like this one does.

   This is the best WP image capture plugin I have ever used! But I hope to add a feature to automatically check whether there is an external image every time an article is updated, and if there is one, it will automatically grab and replace it! Thank you!

   I created a site and bulk scraped articles with images from other sites. But my scraper could only scrape the page html, not import the image itself into wordpress. So I used this plugin. The scraping software scraped the post and image in HTML format from the other sites and created new posts on my site. Then this plugin downloaded the image so it is hosted on my actual site and CDN, and renamed it according to my parameters. Perfect!

   I configured the plugin in just 30 seconds and run the batch processing of all my posts: it did the job as expected with no hassle and a clear interface, no ads… lovely
