Post Meta Data 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 · 54% 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.

   For development, this has come in quite handy for quickly finding meta keys and values on a particular post type. It is simple and straightforward. I can think of only two things that would make this more useful for me personally: The ability to restrict viewing and/or editing to particular user capabilities and/or user roles A place to see all available meta keys, in order to quickly switch between different post types That said, this plugin is way more convenient than digging through database entries. Many thanks for creating and maintaining this.
