Feature A Page Widget

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 · 82% 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.

   Brilliant plugin with great support, I have used it on several sites and it makes for pretty and functional widgets in the sidebar. After the recent WordPress update to 5.8 introduced the stupid block editor, you couldn’t select a page/post in the plugin. The workaround is to just opt out of that new interface by installing the official Classic Widgets plugin then all is good again 🙂

   What a great little plugin. Does exactly what I needed and it’s very customizable for custom themes. Documentation and examples on filters were easy to understand and incorporate.

   WOW is all i can say this widget was super easy to set up and it took my theme to the next level. I was hand-coding what this widget already accomplishes so much better. Along with this I installed relevanassi for search, so I could add my featured snippet to each page on my site. Now I can feature a widget the proper way, with a pic and a snippet! Thanks to this plugin my site is complete! You guys are awesome… im donating some $$

   This widget is easy to set up and customize and is perfect for allowing non-techie users to feature different posts/pages/custom post types on areas of a site.
