Review Content Type

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.

Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.

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.

0 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank

Ranked about #30,100 to #45,000, alongside the other plugins at 10+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 21 Oct 2026.

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.

Crossed into this band 15 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 50% of the way through.

   This is a terrific plugin. One has to make some changes to give it the look and feel of one’s own website, but there is plenty of room for that. After translating and pasting the following code in my functions.php this plugin gives me all I was looking for: add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', 'your_prefix_review_archive_title' ); function your_prefix_review_archive_title( $title ) { if ( is_post_type_archive( 'review' ) ) { return post_type_archive_title( '', false ); } return $title; } The code helps to get rid of the word Archives at the archive page. I use the plugin for reviews (what else?). I want Dutch entrepreneurs to start publishing videos. With only 24 million people in the world who can speak Dutch there is no real market for a commercial platform on video publishing for Dutch (and Flemish) speaking entrepreneurs. But I just want to do it. One should have a hobby right? This plugin makes it possible I can publish reviews for this niece audience. Thank you for that Chetan Chauhan! For Dutch who want to see it in action (or who want the Dutch language files): https://combron.nl/reviews/

   Hi there, I think the plugin is really useful and has a lot of potential. However, there’s few issues: 1. The brand image is not aligned with the button, the image is shifted towards the left and it looks messy in my opinion. 2. Social media plugins see the ‘pros and cons’ and ‘summary’ as two different post therefore the social buttons appear twice. 3. After adding an image my footer broke and was overlaping with the footer. Please make sure that the summary is ‘fixed’. Thanks and I hope you’ll be able to make some improvements. Jakub

   Allows for really customizable reviews, that integrates perfectly with WordPress / my chosen theme. Developer is very responsive to questions. Highly recommended.
