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 · 48% 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I use the folders organizing plugin and the gallery plugin to organize the hundreds of folders and files with photographs and illustrations in galleries. The album auto-generate function saved a lot of time, and the customizable templates let me alter the look to match my clients’ existing themes. A few confusions and gotchas were quickly addressed and new versions that solved issues were produced the same day or overnight. Communications with support was quickly responded to and questions were answered so I could resume working without delay.

   Sorry, but the code is incomplete for version 7.0.3. The folder: /libs/flexslider/ is missing, but used with the default slider. That shows nothing now. My contribution to the forum about this was removed and after that the item was closed….. Not a nice way to do that.We have disabled the PRO version for all clients now.

   I’ve been using this plugin recently. I like it… but I can’t sort the images in the gallery… maybe because I’m using the free version?
