Editorial Calendar

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 · 56% 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.

   As long as the plug-in worked, I enjoyed using it. Since yesterday, however, it only displays published posts (etc.) and is therefore almost useless.

   I do like the plugin and the overview it gives you.But unfortunately, it doesn’t work with multilingual plugins (like Polylang). I only see published, planned, and drafted posts in one language.

   I worked in publishing for almost 30 years, and when I started putting out my own blog I sorely missed the editorial calendar for scheduling. And then I found this handy plugin. It does exactly what I need! It’s so easy to move posts from one day to the another, and to see what I have scheduled for the next month. Thanks so much for keeping it up-to-date with the latest wordpress version.
