Manage Notification E-mails

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 · 98% 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.

   This is a really useful plugin for disabling those annoying ‘plugin x has just automatically updated’ emails. Suggestion for author – the plugin isn’t easy to find in WordPress’s plugin search for terms like ’email notifications’. This is because you spell email as e-mail. This might be the technically correct spelling, but it’s not helping people find your plugin. I would consider changing the spelling.

   This plugin no longer works and seems to have been abandoned. Within the past half year, users were complaining they weren’t receiving the password reset emails. Sure enough, we found it was this plugin preventing password reset emails from going out. Disabled it and all is working as should now.
