Breadcrumb Block

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 · 75% 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.

   I use this plugin, but I had some difficulties at first. However, the programmer helped me and solved the problem. A big thank you!

   This just works, beautifully. Does exactly what you need and with filters, you can customize it quite easily. Great support as well. Highly recommend.

   Awesome plugin, far easier than building it myself. Having the filters available makes modifications easy for me. For a regular user, backend settings might be easier though. This topic was modified 3 years, 3 months ago by Felix.
