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. 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I needed a super simple and fast way to add social network share buttons to our website’s news articles. The B Social Share plug-in fulfilled that need. I set it up in minutes and can even embed it into a WP Pattern, combining it with additional blocks for a straightforward drag-and-drop experience in our WP editor.

   While this plugin may be somebody’s cup of tea, it’s not mine. I was looking for a lightweight plugin as possible I could customize for my needs. While plugin has many bells and whistles, it includes font awesome and it’s css (59 kb), it’s own css, two javascripts…It does not follow block editor aestetics and interface seems a bit complicated.Additionally, it does not provide javascript source code so developer could customize it in block editor, while being declared as open-source (minified javascript does not count as open-source) This topic was modified 2 years, 8 months ago by Lovro Hrust.
