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.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Unfortunatelty it does not work on version 6.4.3 (LTS). The advertised “Typography” section does not appear… After installation I cannot access any new options to add fonts.

I installed it but it doesn’t work. It’s not easy as the plugin title says.

Totally new to wordpress and this plug in was super easy to use and allowed me to change fonts with no problem. The support also gave me CSS selector (I have NO knowledge of CSS…) to change the navigation font. Huge thank you!

Works well. Some issues with a recent upgrade, but support was excellent and problem is now resolved.

This plugin does one thing and it does that well: integrates Google Fonts into your WordPress site. A recent update did cause some issues on my site but the developer’s response to my query was super fast and after doing what he suggested my site is back to normal. Big fan of this plugin.

The latest updates caused issues with the plugin working properly on my site. The team very quickly responded and fixed the issue! This plugin is great for getting very specific with font styling, highly recommend.
