Disable auto-update Email Notifications

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 · 94% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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.

Most reviewers love how small and single-purpose it is, though a few say it didn't work on their sites and others want finer control so failed-update alerts still come through.

   I am always suspicious of WordPress plugins and like to see if they really do ONLY what they say. I was SO pleased to see that this plugin literally adds two lines of executable code. Two filters that just disable theme and plugin update emails. That’s it. Amazing!

   It’s a fully functional plugin, which does what it claims. However, would be nice to see in future if there would be more possible settings, e.g. information when plugin update failed etc. 🙂
