Kama Thumbnail

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 · 77% 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.

   Thank you for your plugin! It does exactly what I was waiting for. Indeed, this is a developper plugin, and I attended to generate thumbnails from external URLs and put them in cache, what the plugin does perfectly. Thanks!

   Kama Thumbnail is fast, usefull and definetely “must-have” plugin. I use it on all my sites. The plugin reduces disk space usage and gives more flexibility to developing themes – you don’t have to create and keep hundreds of thumbnails, that won’t ever be used and you don’t depend on wp media library image sizes setting. Thank you!

   Попробовал на одном огромном портале с несколькими миллионами картинок – результта превзошел все мои ожидания. Количество фоток на сервере стало заметно меньше (а размеров у нас очень много) и делать руками приходится не так много работы. Спасибо!

   Must have plugin! I’m use it practically on all projects. Allows you to reduce the number and size of images on the server and quickly change their sizes by a couple of actions. Thanks!
