Property Hive

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

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.

102 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 19 listed. 83 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

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. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 2.7 years ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 90% of the way through.

   Needed some help connecting Property Hive to my client’s CRM and received thorough, helpful and friendly support in super-quick time. (Turned out the issue was with the CRM and the API it was generating, but the help from Property Hive was essential in isolating the potential issue.) Now in use, the plug-in works brilliantly. Highly recommended.

   A great product overall for anyone setting up an estate agency website. On top of that the service is fantastic. I had a question on generating a particular document type in the CRM around maintenance jobs. The team tested it, found it wasn’t currently possible, created the functionality, and released it. This was all completed in less than a week. Thanks again!

   This plugin allows for countless possibilities. Grant sorted me out with some genius extra code too so that the plugin fits perfectly with our back-end admin. Top stuff :] This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by sipat999.

   This plugin has worked perfectly without issue across multiple clients, and any time we have run into issues with bespoke changes we need to make/have made for a particular use case, Steve’s support and assistance has been both timely and incredibly helpful.

   First off – this is not intended to be a wholly negative post. It’s clear that the plugin is EXCEPTIONALLY powerful… however, during testing of the plugin I came across three areas which IMHO should be addressed. My hope was to speed up my workflow when creating property listing sites, as ATM we build from the ground up using ACF. However…1) Clucky documentation … it takes a while to search the docs to find how to’s or why something is not working as expected. overall, on-site documentation in parts can be so sparse, we had to revert to Facebook groups or Reddit to find the answers we needed.2) Page builder centric … We predominantly use either the Kadence or Blocksy Pro themes, alongside Guttenberg blocks including block plugins from Kadence, Stackable etc. But its seems to be able to create something truly unique (visually) you have to use either Divi, Elementor or Bricks. While we do have a Elemento Pro licence, we have not built a new site with it since 2022, and we’re actively pushing what remaining clients we have using Elementor over to Block-based designs, hopefully by the end of 2025. We could create our own theme and script our own dynamic blocks, but that defeats the point of switching to speed up our workflow.3) Could not get Google maps API to work. I’m sure it’s a problem at our end, but we could not figure out what was going wrong, and searching the docs (point 1) became a PITA. It frustrates as we can connect using ACF or the Easy Property Listings plugin we’ve tested side by side. Overall, we could live with point 1, most plugins/themes are poorly documented (Kadence)… but to not natively support blocks or even the WP code dynamic block is truly disheartening, for such a powerful feature rich plugin…As it stands, we can recreate most of the features Hive offers with ACF/SCF and some customisations. But it take use approx 200 man hours…. This could have cut that down to 10 to 30 man hours.Hopefully, Hive will address the lack of block support in the future. Or have a solution for using the dynamic block, that we have missed.

   Very powerful plugin for creating real estate / property listing websites. Works as a complete solution out the box but very customisable and endless dev docs on their site and resources on their github. Our project was built using Elementor and the integration works great, giving us full creative freedom backed by the tools Property Hive includes. No other solution could have worked for our project, really good investment and we aren’t even utilising all the plugin has to offer! Support has been nothing short of perfect, huge thank you to Steve & the team. Provided great solutions, helped with bug fixes and even sent code snippets over when my talent ran out. I’ve never experience support as good before, and doubt I will again. Thanks again
