Responsive slider / slideshow

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 · 100% 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 hate to give a bad review but when the developer states 100% money back guarantee and then will not respond I have no choice. I sent a request over a week ago and since have sent a second request. The auto response says someone will be back to you within the next 12 hours. The plugin causes the WP White Screen of Death when trying to go back and customize my WP Theme. I have the latest version of this plugin as well as the latest version of the theme by WP. Deactivating this plug-in resolved the compatibility issue. I wanted to work with the developers to help resolve my issue and continue to use the plug-in but no response. So I would not recommending anyone pay for this plugin unless you have some cash to burn.

   The developer makes me unhappy. The 100% money back guarantee is a fake. You get nothing back. A very bad developer without many knowledge…bad!

   Nice Plugin, simple and effective, achieved the requirement I had. Also thanks for the custom post type management side quite easy. Btw even after I select the “Positioning” as hide for a slide the title still appears. Don’t know if you made it like this or not, but would really want you add a settings for the title hide too!
