Hyperlink Group Block

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 · 93% 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.

At the current install trend, crossing 8K+ in roughly 123 days.

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.

   The unnecessary and non-urgent modification in 2.0.3 causes an incompatible problem.

   This should be part of WordPress core blocks. Thanks for fixing Gutenberg!

   Easy to use. Thank you developer. Don’t forget to remove links from inside the group.

   Nicely put together. Will be using this block regularly. The 4 star review mentions missing abitility to add title tag, but the excellent Attributes for Blocks plugin will do that for you and more, for all your blocks.

   Thank you. I try to keep my sites lean and mean and appreciate that it’s not bloated and elegantly integrated. Nice job. This topic was modified 2 years ago by tracysurf.

   Editor content disappeared when I activated this plugin. Deactivating solved my issue.
