Genesis Portfolio Pro

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 · 71% 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.

A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.

   In the settings there is no way to change the default view of 3 columns in the porfolio overview / archive page. This topic was modified 7 years ago by hansbraumueller.

   Handy plugin for adding a portfolio custom post type to your Genesis theme. Does exactly what I needed it to do.

   This plugin was a lifesaver. After searching the web for a solution and most required moderate to complex solutions and paid tutorials. I was happy to find it and see that it came from a trusted Genesis source. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

   I’ve been using Genesis themes with the portfolio CPT for a while. Happy to have it made into a plugin. Now I am not limited to themes who have incorporated it into the theme. And, I’m starting to use it with Advanced Custom Fields to create a customized user experience for data entry
