Inline Image Upload for BBPress

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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   This adds much needed functionality to bbPress. The author responded very quickly to an issue I had.

   At first I couldn’t get it to work and got a “critical error” every time I tried. When support read that, they contacted me and asked for details and then fixed it with an update in one day! I’m impressed… This topic was modified 11 months, 3 weeks ago by jmarken.

   This is the best plugin because it simply inserts images into threads so if you want to disable the plugin in the forum tomorrow the images will continue to be visible.

   The last response was a year ago. If they do not want to support this plugin they should remove it.
