Restrict Elementor Widgets, Columns and Sections

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 · 51% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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.

   Breaks the Dashboard. All Dashboard widgets disappear except for a warning indicating a critical error has occurred. There does not seem to be any support available. Too bad, as it would have been a handy add on. Note that it does not seem to crash the site, the only indication something is wrong is the loss of all content on the WordPress Dashboard.

   I recently had a problem with a plugin I purchased from Codexpert, but when I contacted tech support, I was promptly answered. My problem was resolved very quickly. I want to congratulate and thank Md (Mustakim Ahmed) – Support Engineer. Qualified and competent professional! Thank you Codexpert!!!

   Excellent plugin for restrict content. I´m using it to hide content for logged out user and show them the login form and show restrict content for logged in users. Normally I don´t install plugins that don´t have many install but this ones works excellent. Thanks to the team behind!
