Exclude Pages From Menu

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 · 89% 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.

   This plugin adds a small tickbox at the bottom of the page editor (settings bar on the right) to exclude that page from appearing on the typical navigation bar. Simple and straightforward.

   I have no idea why this plugin got so many “doesn’t work” reviews. Complete crock of crap. I’m running WP 5.7 and this little gem worked flawlessly out the gate exactly as promised. Being said, I’m also using a plugin that gets rid of the stinkin’ Gutenberg nonsense and goes straight to the classic editor. So in fairness, I cannot speak to those still stuck with Gutenberg. However, if you’re using the classic editor, Exclude Pages From Menu should work like a champ. Thank you to Vinod Dalvi for creating this plugin – works PERFECTLY!

   Apparently this plugin is no longer working and there is no way to get in contact with the creator or the plugin support. The links go to nothing. Would be nice if the links actually work when you need to get in contact with someone when the plugin no longer works.
