MK Google Directions

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank

wp.org popularity rank over time · lower is better

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 · 44% 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.

   Not sure why others don’t absolutely love this plugin, but it allows us to add a section directly under our Google Map providing step by step directions to our business. Two thumbs up!

   If you have an HTTPS site I do not recommend using this plugin. It broke our site and had a hard time to discover it was actually this plugin, which worked temporarily. It uses Google Font Oswald which will not update to HTTPS even with plugins to force it to HTTPS. Broke our site, had to re-write the entire Contact page. Tried to contact the author and the website has been deleted. Not a good sign.

   This plugin was almost exactly what i needed but in KM instead of miles, i spent a couple of days trying to edit it to no avail, so i emailed Manjo(the author) to ask him if he knew how to do it, a few days later i got an email from him letting me know that the plugin had been updated with the feature i had requested. Thanks for the great plugin and the added feature.
