Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. acquisition value

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.

    This is exactly what I was looking for, and it works great with custom post types as well as in Gutenberg editor. Unfortunately, the quick edit function has been overlooked!

    I’ve been searching for hours. It’s beyond my expectations. Just awesome. Works perfect everywhere, CPT also. And you can choose the display differently for the same taxonomy depending on the CPT. I love you, you rock!

    Super simple and effective plugin. I only wish we could be able to create new categories or tags from inside the block while creating a new post/page. That would make me give 5 stars for sure.

    I used it years ago and it was well done. But for now it seems to stoped working with newer wordpress versions (with classic editor plugin): – Wrong Term in Radio list is selected on Editpage Loading, saves the wrong term on update. – Button [+ Add Term] adds an uneditable id number maybe in this area there had been changes to the wordpress API that should be updated here.
