Flexible SSL for CloudFlare

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 · 99% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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.

   First time I am leaving a wordpress plugin review after my 10+ years experience using wordpress. For some reason, I cannot activate SSL on my own server and cannot use “Full” SSL setting at cloudflare. This plugin solved my problem nicely.

   I dont really understand the problem, because it should redirect loop the whole time, but it doesnt, only on some parts in backend and some problems with plugins. But anyway, this plugin is the solution, CRAZY? and for free. Respekt. Thank you very much! You saved my life!

   i do not really know why. i just wanted to move my site from webspace a to webspace b. so i did that, changed the IPs in DNS settings of cloudflare and voila i was suddenly trapped in an infinite redirection loop. for some reason my webspace b provider does not allow me to acitvate ssl on the domain. i stumpled upon this plugin which seems to fix my issue. so thank you! but i have to admit i still do not understand whats going on 😉
