Awesome Widgets for SiteOrigin Page Builder

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 · 98% 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.

   This is the only free widget that shows products by category. It is Donald Duck proof: so easy that there’s only two options. Once You insert the widget it works by itself automatically. The lack of a control over the transition speed and the “rewind” effect at the end are the only defects for me. Something I can live without, obviously.

   I’ve installed this plugin on WP Mulitiste and the first menu item takes me to a 404 error page, the 2nd and 3rd menu items ask me to purchase the Premium version. So, this plugin does absolutely nothing other than ask you to pay! No no no

   I installed this plugin with a series of other plugins without realizing that I needed Woo Commerce. No biggy, right? WRONG. Every single page load (even when not in admin) pops up a closeable alert (or sometimes 3) telling you to activate WooCommerce. The problem is that it doesn’t identify which plugin is creating this ridiculous error. There is no indicator at all until you pour through all your plugins and find the one that A) literally delays loading of every page and then flashes the error before the page is displayed, B) puts the error in every alert and every comment window possible, and C) provides the ability to close the anonymous alert window(s), but they come right back. It is so unprofessional and so unnerving, I won’t even give them a try once I activate WooCommerce. I can understand one alert, but if I say, I got it, leave me alone. Way too pushy and breaks user display–not acceptable.
