Vimeotheque – Vimeo WordPress Plugin & Video Gallery

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 · 74% 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.

A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.

   It takes way to long to install. Focused on playlists instead of individual videos. Unable to embed any video I tried.

   Just starting out with it but it works wonderfully. Plus the developer is very thorough and understands the confusion a new user might have. With his help, I have found it easy to continue developing my site. Paul Arenson, Japan This topic was modified 4 years, 10 months ago by tokyoprogressive5.

   After development of our site comprised of LearnDash and Memberpress I needed a way to pull in our content from Vimeo. Both LD and MP are pretty horrible when trying to do this natively. Pfft. Enter Vimeotheque. I had been considering this plugin all along but waited until I had the rest of the site developed. Once I got into it I found that for my purposes, with LearnDash I couldn’t easily link between the two for courses. Sigh… here’s where the fantastic support comes in. After a few detailed emails with Constantin at Code Flavors, we figured out where the disconnect was and … BOOM! I have LearnDash add-on that imports into my LMS as a lesson. The import feature is great but I can’t say I’ve used it for other than importing videos on a manual basis. But if there is something wrong, I know if I reach out he’ll have an answer.
