Multisite User Role Manager

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.

   I spent about 30 minutes looking at different multisite user management plugins and all of them were either out of date, or tried to do too much. This plugin solved the exact issue I was dealing with: adding a user (with a specified role) to all of my client’s subsites. Thank you very much. I wish you all the best, Kevin. P.S. the CSS for the admin screen where you add users to subsites was a bit off for me (in Chrome). The table did not fit the modal background (it hung off to the right a bit, and forced me to scroll even though there was plenty of vertical space). It doesn’t bother me but it might bother some other users so I figured I would let you know.

   Ajax management makes it super easy to add users to a bunch of sites in the network. Does 1 things really well, more plugins should work like this.

   Plugin works great, and has helped me sort out some strange permissions issues. I have one suggestion for improvement: Display the name of the user being viewed on the modal/popup. If I’m working on just one user, it’s not a big deal….but when comparing several users, open in all different browser tabs, it was hard to know which one I was looking at. But that minor deficiency is not enough to merit any less than 5 stars. Awesome plugin, many thanks! Update – June 29: And great support, too! Not only did the author resolve my problem, he also included my suggestion in the latest update. 🙂
