Instant Indexing for Google

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.

   Hello, I’m reaching out because I’ve been seeing a persistent error on my WordPress site whenever I activate your plugin. The error message is as follows: Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the fast-indexing-api domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in -----\wp-includes\functions.php on line 6121 I’ve noticed that this message only appears when the fast-indexing-api plugin is active. When I deactivate it, the error goes away completely. Based on what I’ve read, it seems the issue is related to how and when the plugin loads its translations. Could you please let me know if there’s a recommended solution or workaround for this issue? I’d also appreciate any information about whether a fix will be included in an upcoming update of the plugin. Thanks in advance for your help!

   The submission is a sham. There’s no real interaction between Google and the link; you only receive a green message confirming the action, but in reality, nothing has happened. The links have not been, and will not be, indexed.

   Hello, I’m using in a composer based WordPress stack and I’m having issues with with your plugin dependencies. Choosing Composer in the context of a WordPress plugin implies certain prerequisites and responsabilities. You have three (unique) solutions: Provide your plugin without autoload/vendor via Composer (as Yoast or ACF do) so that a WordPress project managed with Composer (which is very often the case on “pro” sites using Bedrock or equivalent stacks) is aware of your dependencies/constraints and can warn the user of a compatibility problem or manage the constraints of other dependencies (the whole point of a dependency manager). Prefix your dependencies (for example, with Yoast), which allows you to isolate your dependencies (by automatically modifying their namespace – PHPScoper does this very well) and avoid conflicts. You may provide a bundled plugin, but composing it should only be used for its autoload functionality (no dependencies). Your plugin is using very popular dependencies (Monolog, Guzzle) that may conflict with a user based installation or another plugin. If you intend to use external dependencies, please do it the right way. This topic was modified 1 year, 10 months ago by Nicolas Lemoine.
