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 · 86% 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.

   Does exaktly what it should and very minimalistic, perfect. The missing translations is not an issue since you an customize the reply email notification and the checkbox text. 10/10 Thank you!

   A month ago, I began to send incorrect messages to the mail. The author doesn’t answer. Apparently, the plugin has come to an end. This topic was modified 2 years, 10 months ago by baf285.

   It does not work when you have moderated comments enabled. When you accept the comment or reply to the comment the email is not sent. It is only sent when the moderated comments are not active or when an admin replies from the dashboard. Could you please fix it? don’t mind paying a beer or 2 or 3…. Thanks.
