PageView

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 · 93% 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.

   Since the last review from 2018 was/is a really negative one, I decided to add mine also. I’ve been using this plugin for ages now, and it still works. There are some things that could be improved to make it more safe and more “2025”: Sanitize All Shortcode Attributes: Use sanitize_text_field() for all user-supplied attributes before use, even if you escape them on output. Defensive Defaults: Ensure all attributes have safe defaults and are validated. Escaping: You already use esc_url() and esc_html(), but also use esc_attr() for all HTML attributes. Remove Deprecated PHP: The use of &$this in add_shortcode is not needed in modern PHP. I don’t know how to suggest codechanges via SVN, but if the code is somewhere in github, I’m happy to provide them. And others: thank you for providing this plugin for free all those many years ago! 🙂

   Hi, I tried this with my current template and on 2015, used the given examples, brought them across with copy/paste, not typo’s, it simply didn’t work. At best it yielded an empty space where the embedded webpage should have been. The one star is for the good idea, now the challenge for the maker will be to put it into practice so that it works! Disappointed, Marjoline
