Menu Backup & Restore + Import/Export

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 · 65% 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 500+ in roughly 111 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   I have a DIY client with a very large and complex menu who has accidentally deleted that menu several times (not entirely his fault – the delete menu link is far too similar in location and text to the delete menu item link). Having had to rebuild it on each occasion, I am so grateful for this intuitive, straightforward option to not only back up but restore (and even import/export) a deleted menu. This is one of those capabilities that should be built in to WordPress, but since it isn’t, thank you, thank you, thank you for seeing that unmet need, and taking the time to provide a solution!
