HTML5 Slideshow Presentations

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

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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   I installed this plugin and it was pretty easy to get started, but you’ll definitely need to read the documentation on all the cool features you can use and how to use them. An excellent plugin for a simple slideshow presentation that can be run from a local install. I like that it uses a custom content type and that there is sample file to import data so you can see how to work with it. I will definitely be telling others about this plugin!

   I just finished my third public presentation on WordPress using this plugin and everyone loves it. It is easy to use and you just need to share the link instead of a whole file.

   This is one of my favorite WordPress plugins. After using PowerPoint and Impress for building presentations for a few years now, I migrated completely to HTML5 Slideshow Presentations once I had the chance to test it. The plugin allows for designing each slide as a separate post entry and automatically bundles a group of posts as a complete presentation with a neat default look-and-feel. There are super handy options available for every slide regarding it’s title/content positioning, automatic stretching of content images and more. Since it’s WordPress based, you could add extra plugins for formatting or using shortcodes for the slides. Editing is way easier for people with frontend background – pure HTML/CSS. Basic transition options included. Love it.
