Biggest opportunity: Swap “announcements” and “history” for “horizontal timeline” and “achievement”. “announcements” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “horizontal timeline” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “history” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “achievement” sits at #20 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 700 of 48.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,773 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 4 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

What to do about it
- Swap “announcements” and “history” for “horizontal timeline” and “achievement”. “announcements” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “horizontal timeline” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “history” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “achievement” sits at #20 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

A great plugin and a responsive support team

I’m not even a subscriber, but using the free timeline they were still willing to help me figure out some issues I was running into. Great support!

I have experience with timeline plugins. I really liked the timeline script from another plugin I was using. However, I had a choice: stay with my current timeline or switch to Post TimeLine. Every pre-sale question I asked was answered. I bought the product, but I had an issue with BC being added to my timeline. Who would do that? You see, it’s a biblical timeline. Support resolved the issue in two days. Why did I select Post Time Line? I was drawn to the navigation menu at the top of each post, so I purchased it. I love it. The events are listed chronologically, and users can easily locate specific events by scrolling through the list. The product and support are included, fantastic. This is more than just a product, it’s an indispensable tool with the potential to transform my site. Thank you, I am very pleased. I am sure you’ll like the Post Time Line script. I love how it can be customizable to fit my needs. This topic was modified 1 year, 7 months ago by tim4962.
