Export Plugins and Templates

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 · 69% 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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   All this plugin does is export plugin or theme folder contents. It does not export SQL data base data for the plugin or theme so essentially this plugin is useless since you can achieve the same exact thing using FTP or the file manager in your hosting account. What wordpress needs is a plugin that exports (and imports) plugin data, not just the files, so you can easily move a plugin and it’s data/settings from one site to another. As it stands, this plugin just takes up space. The less plugins you have installed, the better, because wordpress gets really slow the larger the database is. So don’t bother installing this plugin. I gave this plugin 2 stars instead of 1 because I realize maybe there are cases where it may be useful (although I can’t think of one). This topic was modified 7 years, 6 months ago by toolsavvy.

   This does a greaaat job of making plugin export a doddle. Upon install, the plugin adds an ‘Export’ option below Plugins in the dashboard, from which you can display a dropdown list of all the plugins you have installed. Select one, click download et voila. Very clean, simple, and effective.
