CM Video Lessons Manager – Simplify video lessons management for better education

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 · 100% 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 have really no coding experience, and was able to set up this plugin fairly easily. When I ran into some issues, I contacted support, and I can’t say enough good things about how responsive (and patient) they were, and how helpful they were in figuring out and helping me solve the issues we were experiencing, and now everything is working as expected. It’s a great product with great support. I highly recommend it.

   I purchased this plugin to setup my video lessons. Once I tried to setup payments, I found out that you need to purchase an add on for that. The description is very misleading. It does not state that this is an additional fee. I have contacted the author and they said “Okay, I’ll let our marketing team know the description can be improved” I do not recommend this product.
