ND Shortcodes

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 · 63% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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.

   The developer does not seem to read the issues reported in the forum here. The CF7 integration is broken since 4 versions (6 months ago) and is still not fixed.

   Not even half of the shortcodes visible in the screenshot are available, and to make things worse the Italian translation sucks therefore is misleading!

   I was hoping for more powerful. It is not working and showing errors. This topic was modified 3 years, 10 months ago by jsrit.

   Warning: this plugin installs a new tab “WP Theme” for “Wedd Planner” which offers paying themes. I don’t like this commercial approach! And the features do not add anything compared to those of Visual de Composer.
