Quick Drafts Access

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 · 80% 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.

   I did not know that getting rid of only one click makes my writing process this smoother. I am very grateful to the developer for creating and maintaining this plugin.

   Love this plug-in. Quick Drafts Access helps me keep track of all the posts I have in draft status. I can go back and review those drafts, update them, work on them, publish them, whatever I need. Good to be able to see if other authors on my site – even me as a different login – have left unfinished posts around.

   Great job. I love to accumulate drafts on different ideas, but never keep track of them. Then to navigate to them is an exercise in futility. Why this isn’t part of the core code is beyond me. Thanks for building it!

   This is a great example of a simple plugin that solves an annoying issue without trying to do too much. It even has a filter for developers if they’d like to change what posts types use the quick draft access feature. Great work!
