Gecka Submenu

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 · 98% 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.

   Hello, I want to thank you for this great plugin as I searched for a plugin like this for a long time and didn’t find until I saw this and read its description and its video but it didn’t work with wp 4.7 So, can you upgrade its code?

   I’ve been using this plugin on client sites for years now. Simple interface, easy to use, does what you need. Part of my “essential plugins” list used in all projects.

   It works perfectly, now all of my submenus are dynamic. Only thing I don’t like is that there is a commercial pro version.

   Needed to divide a navigation menu in several submenus. Needed to include menus in theme files and change some option of wp_nav_menu for display (in my case the ID of the menu container). The plugin perfectly took everything in charge. Big Thank You for the developper !
