Deliverability – pass DKIM, SPF, DMARC & more

Reviewers who got it working call it easy to set up and effective at DKIM signing, but the two newest complaints report DKIM not being recognised and verification emails never arriving, with no reply from the developer.

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

7 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 5 listed. 2 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.

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 · 83% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 3 months ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 800.

   I’m seriously impressed with this plugin. Easy to configure, works a treat and succeeds in what it sets out to do, i.e. DKIM signing email. Thank you so much. It’s so good and as a free plugin I’m almost embarrassed to ask, but I will. It creates auth0_session_0 cookies and I’m happy to accept that. The only trouble is I try to keep my website as secure as possible and when I check my security headers I see auth0_session_0 cookies don’t use the secure flag. Would it be possible to have the option for these cookies to use the secure flag?

   I really like this plugin. It does exactly what I needed and you get a deliverability score depending on the settings that are established in the backend. The only downside, is that it took me some external research to get the correct setup for DMARC (the ones provided, where not precise enough). Once I got it correctly, my website rated 100% on the deliverability score. Thanks.

   The plugin offers a straightforward and user-friendly experience. Following the simple instructions in the settings page, I successfully added the TXT record to my DNS and my emails were successfully signed. I particularly appreciate the delivery chart and the dashboard, which provide valuable insights on my email deliveries and how to enhance it. These features empower me to ensure a safer and more reliable communication to my customers.

   The plugin is very well made and the code is organized and clean which is truly a plus, an added value in the sea of plugins that often bring down the performance of websites due to the poor quality of the written code.
