Code Revisions

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.

   This plugin’s php processes were consuming 100% of the CPU of a Intel Xeon 4-Core processor running CentOS when saving theme files such as functions.php and header.php. We have verified that it was this plugin and this plugin alone causing the rampant CPU usage.

   Hello Alexander, This is a very usefull plugin, working nice with last version of wordpress (3.8). Thanks a lot! Update – Can work with an editor enhancer plug-in: I have tested Code Revisions with Better File Editor and they work together. you have highlighted code and revisions. That is a very good new! With editors enhancer as “CodeMirror for CodeEditor” or “WPeditor”, Code Revisions can not display revisions of edited files in the themes or plug-ins directories. In this case Code Revisions works in a hidden way, because those two editor use proprietary templates. Best regards 🙂

   I installed it and saw NO change on any page. There is also no documentation on the web site. Who knows what this is supposed to do and how it works?

   This plugin is really awesome, thank you for creating it! I really appreciate that, as I often have to do tweaks on the fly on some projects (on the go etc.). Finally I can reset changes and such. Really well done! 🙂
