Easy Photography Portfolio

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 · 86% 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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

17 of the last 26 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

   I tested a lot of portfolio plugins and they look all quite ugly – or you need to pay for boring effects. Photography Portfolio looks great. And it’s very simple to use. If you know how to manage templates, customisation is possible and that’s the kind of feature that makes a great difference. Too bad the documentation is not very noob friendly as the time I’m writing this review. I hope it will be completed. This topic was modified 4 years, 11 months ago by Li-An.

   In my opinion the best and most powerful and at the same time the easiest to use plugin for portfolios that I know. In the last few days I have looked for and tested many alternatives.

   This is so simple and just works. I have been through several gallery/portfolio plugins that’s just overly complex, but also requires an insane price for the plugin. Thank you for making a FREE plugin that actually works!

   Works really great on my camera club website, except that I really want to be able to filter out certain category galleries on the “overview page”. Unfortunately, this only works if the gallery is the “homepage”, which in my case it can’t be as our club needs a different homepage. Not sure if this is a limitation of wordpress or if it is an intentional restriction. On a related note, it would be great if we could have a checklist of multiple categories for the filter, rather than just selecting a single category. Other than that – great work!

   As soon as I installed the plugin, I received an email saying that I needed to verify my email. I never gave them my email to send the verification to. They stole it from my website.
