Granular Controls For Elementor

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 · 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.

   Still some useful things here but some no longer work such as scheduled content. Others such as parallax superceded by Elementor updates. Pity its not supported anymore

   Works great to set all Elementor’s accordions’ first tab to be closed on page load. (I have no clue why that possibility isn’t possible directly in Elementor) /Lars, Copenhagen WP 5.2

   I am sorry to take back my original rating, but I have no choice. It’s sad that the original developer obviously had abandoned this plugin, for whatever reason. Please don’t install anymore. This topic was modified 7 years, 4 months ago by David Decker. Reason: abandoned plugin
