EMC – Embed Calendly Scheduling With Ease

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. 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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I would not recommend this plugin. It’s probably better just to add the JavaScript client code from their site. That’s all this plugin does besides add dashboard notices. No matter how many times I dismiss them, this plugin keeps putting annoying admin notifications. The plugin is fine, I already subscribe to your service, stop trying to sell me stuff. Well, I guess the one asking for a review eventually got me to leave a review. This topic was modified 3 years, 2 months ago by Josh Pollock.

   I installed this tool and I found it kind of helpful but with a few bugs because the short code it gave me doesn’t work unless I configure it my self.

   I added the code into a WP page and got the message: No openings at the moment. If you are the owner of this account, you can log in to find out more. Client said: The problem is that I use my Microsoft 365 to login, which is necessary to connect to my calendar. With 365 I am completely passwordless, logging in only via authenticator, so a 6 digit code that changes every 30seconds. Not sure if there is a way around that.
