Auto Subpage Menu

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.

   Been spending hours looking for a module that did exactly this. The only two other modules I found were no longer maintained. Another module I found did not really work as advertised. This feature is sorely needed feature in WP. The current method of having to go to the menu admin to add in a page to the menu is often very confusing for my clients. This module still works on WP 6.1.1. I hope you can continue to maintain it. This topic was modified 3 years, 5 months ago by stevied.

   The idea is good but the support is not very good. So if you find another plug-in with similar functionality I would advise to try that!

   It doesn’t work for any existing parent/child pages , it only works on pages created after the plugin is installed. You must enable – “Automatically add new top-level pages to this menu” on the menu , if not activated , it also won’t work.

   how can I get this to work with polylang or any simliar plugin for multilanguages. the “original wordpress” function works very well: i create a new DE-site, I get a new DE-menu item. I create a new EN-Site, I get a new EN-Site. BUT by using this plugin it should work for child items as well. but it doesn’t. If i create a new DE-site-CHILD, I get a new DE-menu item (child). If I create a new EN-Site-child, I DON’T get a new EN-Site (child).

   It doesn’t do anything… I have lots of pages, I edit a page (wich falls under a parent (with menu)), I save the page and still no extra submenu item.
