Super Search – Custom Post Types

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.

   Using WP v4.7.2, this plugin causes the error “Invalid Post Type” when bulk deleting posts, bulk editing posts or searching posts in the admin. Therefore, you cannot perform these functions unless you disable the plugin. It’s unfortunate because this plugin does exactly what I need and I cannot find another plugin for this function. However I may still continue to use it and just disable it when I need to perform those functions in the admin. This is why I gave it 2 stars instead of 1. I guess this is to be expected when a plugin hasn’t been updated for 2 years.

   The plugin works great, but I had a few more things that I was hoping that could be done with it so I sent an email over to the developer. I was very impressed that the developer took the time to not only email me back, but send me an updated plugin and help me accomplish everything that I needed to do. Wonderful! Thank you!

   I was looking to search only on a specific custom post and this plugin did exactly what I was looking for. You can see it running here: http://seontario.org/stories/ in the Find a story left column. Thanks!
