Post Notification by Email

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.

   Great plugin. I wonder if it is possible to notify just editor on new article waiting for review. I refer to articles which have not been published yet and need to be checked by editor first.

   This plugin works very well with a small number of website users. Most email servers limit the number of recipients to 100 or less to prevent SPAM blacklisting of the ISP. If you have more than the limit (ie, 100) of recipients, the entire email fails to send. It has nothing to do with the plugin, it has to do with the email servers. To make this plugin work for bigger user sites, the plugin needs to have a user configurable parameter like “maxrecipients=100” which would force the plugin to parse the user list into multiple emails. It would also be a good idea to add a user configurable parameter like “delaysend=1000” to delay sending each subsequently parsed email so the server doesn’t block because of too many emails per second. SUMMARY: Great tool but needs some refinement for big sites.

   I was very excited when I saw this plugin as it solves a minor issue I have with my website. However there is nowhere for the user to opt out. Since I run a website for sailors who download their data via satphone, they need to be able to switch on or off their email updates. A widget would solve this problem. For the moment, not being able to opt-out makes this plugin only half useful, which is a shame as it has a lot of potential.
