Front End Users

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 · 93% 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.

   Very useful plugin, being able to get members without messing with the regular WP accounts is great.

   I really like the way this plugin works, it’s exactly what it promises, and it’s easy to use, but the only thing I don’t understand is how I can post in the custom fields I created, using this add-on

   User Interface sucks (but well it’s wordpress…) I need to be updating and downgrading constantly for this plugin to work … Everytime i shutdown my computer and try to develop my app on the next day, the plugin suddendly stops working… What a pain in the ass Also there is no proper documentation on how to develop with this plugin

   The module looks good, but if it does not work (in my case), support does not provide assistance and after some chat exchange starts to ignore my messages.. Never

   Excellent plugin and even better support. Powerful enough to do pretty heavy lifting, but simple enough for a novice to use. I especially like that the all the short code options can be displayed while you are editing the post by typing the shortcode followed by help!
