Gutenberg Block Editor Toolkit – EditorsKit

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 · 89% 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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   Munir and his predecessor have maintained EditorsKit for years. I have been using it for more than 2 years. I miss it, however, I understand their lives have moved on and time no longer permits them to continue to invest in supporting a heart project that I doubt make more than a few cups of coffee. I want it back to, and I guess no one else has stepped up. Maybe it would be better to just turn it off. I hate to see the haters 1 star a project they never invested a dime in. This was one of the first block editors and many of my sites use it and frankly there is no replacement. I am disappointed it is gone but it was great while it lasted.

   As the subject says – It was a great plugin, but no longer working with newest WP. Good Bye…

   I installed the plugin on the latest version of wordpress and I don’t see any updated editor options other than ‘responsive’ in the sidebar. Not sure if this plugin is still supported…

   I installed the plugin from wordpress.org only to get the justify option. It was not there. I then downloaded from the developer’s site and installed from there. No difference.
