of downloads still active
At least 50 of 12.2K lifetime downloads are still running, below 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 1 release 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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |

I really like this Plug-In! I would love to translate it into German. Are there any chances, you implement a pot-File for translation?

This is a great plugin for saving ideas. One idea: It would be great if it was possible to change an idea later without actually writing the post 🙂 Cheers!

This plugin is literally for someone such as myself who manages a lot of contributors and you can post ideas for them to write about. His support is awesome because ethe only thing missing from what I needed was a dashboard widget, and just like that when I asked for it, he released an update that provided it. He didn’t have to but he did. He also showed me how to customize a couple of small things to my liking to fit my workflow. I love this plugin! lol.

This is a great pluggin, very usefull but it misses a few features like : – item editing – expanded view of the items – priority filter

I like this plugin, but as with many multi-authors blogs, my authors don’t have access to the backend. I’d like to see it function as a front-end plugin.

I recently communicated with the developer to make a few improvements. He worked on the plugin in record speed and was very cordial and friendly through the whole process. This is the best plugin for blog owners who intend to provide posts to writers!

It does what it’s supposed to do, and our team loves it! Room for improvement, but so far, so good.
