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 · 100% 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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   Plugin has a bug that prevents the actual document from loading on the webpage unless the end-user’s internet is super fast. Meaning, sometimes you’ll load a page and say, “Wait, where’s the document that’s supposed to be here?” Then you refresh the page once or twice and the document appears. So for people coming to your site, it leaves a bad impression. Only way around this is to mandatory add the Download File button to each page, so if the file doesn’t load on the screen, at least the end-user will see the download button and can access the file that way. However this means you now need to make all your files downloadable to everyone coming to your site. Now, as of August 2020, when I went to add a new document, all of a sudden you can’t add a Download button unless you PAY THEM $15. Little parsimonious weasels. I have so many embedded docs on my site that I just paid because it’s not worth my TIME to reconfigure everything. Wouldn’t have bothered leaving a review, but the sudden desire to charge people for BASIC features (not even anything special) opens you up to getting slammed. Take your 15 dollars. And your one star. This topic was modified 5 years, 11 months ago by mehlmanmedical.

   Te first embedder that works from the start. I like the download button that goes wih it and the fact tkhat you can embed external documents. Furthermore it’s lightweigt, not bloated as many competitiors are.
