1.2%

of downloads still active

At least 40K of 3.3M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 864 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Content & Feeds plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 21 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    It’s ok but honestly it’s just too restricted and paywalled. Couldn’t even add more than one filter. I did appreciate that support/dev finally added back a setting they had removed but it’s just so limited now. Also discovered that quite a few posts were just pulled in as gibberish html code. I also had turned off the ‘Enable Telemetry’ setting and somehow it was back on. And our CSP was still alerting us on this. Will have to look for another plugin.

    I was using version 4.2.8 which was called Feedzy RSS Feeds Lite. Version 4.2.8 has dynamically loaded content, which may be vulnerable to remote code execution on a local wordpress instance. I noticed a couple of values in wp_options are changed to malicous ones, and this feedzy plugin is loading strange, advertisement values into memory/database. If the Feedzy plugin is benign, it at least has bugs susceptible for injections.

    Despite some quirks and shortcomings, the plugin does import RSS feeds. There are quite a few settings that are Pro only, some of which can be overcome with some clever code snippets.What is unforgivable is limiting you to ONLY ONE FEED SOURCE in the free version of the plugin, want any more feeds you have to pay for the EXPENSIVE annual subscription. Especially when the first line of this plugin’s description states: “The most powerful WordPress RSS aggregator, helping you curate content, autoblog, import RSS & display unlimited RSS feeds within a few minutes.” I will be resuming my search for a different plugin without such limitations.

    plugin works fine… they allow just one category in free version

    The description of what this plugin will do is very misleading, there is no bulk upload if you are switching from another program and RSS Feed utilization is way to limited if you are looking for an RSS New Aggregator. If you need support on the weekend, forget it, they are closed. This is not the best choice even though choices are limited. This topic was modified 11 months, 4 weeks ago by terryfrum.

    I have submitted several support inquiries and each response has been professional, helpful, and most importantly, patient. As a newbie in the world of web design, it can be intimidating using new software, and even more intimidating trying to word my questions so that support can understand what I’m asking for. But the kindness and helpful responses that the team at Themeisle provides makes me feel more confident and able to accomplish my goals.Don’t hesitate to reach out to the fabulous support team! They will guide you and will never give up on your issues, no matter how complex it may be.Feedzy is an amazing product and every news aggregator website should invest in the paid version.
