Revision Manager TMC

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.

41 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 15 listed. 26 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn'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 · 99% 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 5.9 years ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 90% of the way through.

   This plugin fitted the bill perfectly to allow a draft copy of a published page to be edited and reviewed in the background before merging back into the published page on approval. Compatibility with ACF was a necessity. The developer also promptly resolved a minor issue which was great.

   I had originally enjoyed using the pro plugin during the development of a new website for a client. However, something I found quite ridiculous was that the license I had purchased for the Pro version was tied to a URL, rather than a website. This was an issue for me and my client, since development was originally done on a staging URL until it was ready, which then it was to be transferred over to the live URL. However, once it was transferred to the proper live URL, the license no longer worked, even after removing the license from the old staging URL. The license refused to detach from the original staging URL. So what, I’m suppose to pay ANOTHER $39 just to have it on the live URL as well? How am I suppose to explain that to the client? Or I am suppose to shell that out of my own pocket? If they say that I’m paying a pro license for the URL (staging and live, separately) rather than the actual website that uses it, then this practice sounds highly predatory, especially considering this would not be the norm for any other plugin out there. So I contacted TheMasterCut, but they keep giving me the beat around the bush – they gave me instructions to provide the license, which I promptly did, and they did nothing in return. I figured, maybe they missed my email, so I remind them of the issue, and still, nothing. Meanwhile, the live website does not have the ability to create revisions, which is problematic to the core functionality of the website, which relies on editors and revisers to work in tandem using this plugin. I’m having a mess of a time dealing with the client while TheMasterCut refuses to return my emails on fixing the licensing issue. The plugin was great while it lasted, but the authors of the plugin are unreliable, and that is a major issue when it comes to real-world projects. I recommend others find a different method of creating revisions, or developing your own plugin for this functionality, which is what I should have done all along, rather than relying on unresponsive authors.

   Great plugin, easy to use and it working with ACF, which is a must. We had a minor issue that was showing up, but we worked with the developer to get it resolved very quickly.

   No nonsense, intuitive interface, and it works great so far. Kudos to the developer! I liked it so much, I’ve added the Hungarian translation. This topic was modified 7 years, 1 month ago by Bence Fodor.

   I recently installed this plugin on a client site. The client was looking to create an easy editing workflow for their team to use to manage website updates. I tried a lot of plugins before finding Revision Manager TMC. I was even more impressed when I emailed the plugin developer to ask about certain functionality that was not currently included in the plugin and they ended up updating the plugin and rolling out the new functionality two days later!

   This is a missing gem. This plugin is similar to Revisionize, but more intuitive and so far has been kept up to date. This works perfect for a multi-user workflow.
