Filter Post Types by Taxonomy

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

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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   I tried out this plugin but ultimately moved on to another solution for a few reasons: 1) No filters appeared at all on the posts list screen. 2) The filter worked well on the page list screen, but all taxonomies are listed in the same filter. I have two issues with this setup: A) You can only filter by one taxonomy at a time. You can already do this from the taxonomy list screens, so other than the convenience of not needing to navigate to another screen, the filter added by this plugin doesn’t add much in the way of functionality… For me, at least, filters are most useful when they can work together. B) If you have a lot of taxonomies and/or terms per taxonomy, scrolling down the select list can become annoying pretty fast. Multiple filters limit the length of the select list. 3) There are no settings for the plugin, so it’s all or nothing. Allowing users to choose which taxonomy filters to enable per post type would also limit the length of the select list, and remove distracting clutter.
