Customify

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 · 84% 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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   The plugin works well IF AND ONLY IF you work STRICTLY with the themes they sell. If you choose however to work with some other gallery plugin, Customify will cause your site to lag, ultimately breaking it as things get wonky pretty quickly.

   I love Pixelgrade as a company – they’re a small but mighty team pumping out beautiful themes. The Customify plugin makes setting up their themes super easy, and the customization panel within Customify is very intuitive. I love that there are preset color schemes so I don’t have to go learn about color harmonies, I just choose one that’s good enough and move on to focus on the content of the site. 5-star team and plugin.

   I’m not sure which update started to mess up with the fonts, but every time I change the size font or font, the next day it is set again by default (font title size Hanken 400). You got to fix this, or just discontinue this plugin. UPDATE May 11th 2020: Since version 2.7.3 everything is working again. Apparently, the issue was a conflict between Customify and The Event Calendar Pro. This topic was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by nikkoboy.
