Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

    Thank you very much for this plagin! But i was not able to assign it correctly. I ve got a category(page) called freebooks, but the content of the page won’t appear in that page. Could you guys help me about this? ‘freebooks’ => ‘freeboks’. I do not get this slug thing. Thank you!

    Big thanks to Sandeep, The plugin works well. I just want to ask what happens to URL of pages from SEO perspective. I have pages domain.com/products/itemType1_PageA domain.com/products/itemType1_PageB domain.com/products/itemType2_PageC domain.com/products/itemType2_PageD Now when I create category itemType1 new URL is created: domain.com/category/itemType1 Where itemType1_PageA and itemType1_PageB are listed. My question is will the new URL interfere with existing links or not?

    Please do fix. This plugin crash with Yoast SEO. When I created new page, the Category option did appear but the categories under it didn’t showing up. And there is an error sentence “An error occurred loading the Yoast SEO primary taxonomy picker.” This topic was modified 5 years, 5 months ago by Mr. Gedanggoreng.

    Installed the plugin, and it works perfectly. Super easy to categorize pages, and manage menus based the categories.
