Prepare New Version

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 · 1% 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.

   Hi, I had an article which has grown to more than 30 000 words (55 pages). Even Though I uses pagination It become impossible to navigate. I was looking for a way to copy and to cut into copies so that I could generate finally five articles (one article per main chapter), all this keeping all categories and properties. During this I was needing to go on viewing the old version too. I could do it rather quickly using “Prepare new version” Trebly

   This plugin takes away may 2-3, maybe 4 other plugins you would have to combine to get all the functionality of this plugin. It is also much easier to create/prepare a new version and in doing to you are taken to the new version instantly. You can then edit it right there, click save, then click update original and your new version of the page is up! Such a productivity booster! Thanks for this addition champ!
