Shortcodes for Elementor

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.

   Muy buen plugin ( respecto al error de la edicion solo hay que poner en modo borrador antes de poder editar ) Nice plug in ( i found how to edit the shortcodes you only need to put the element in draft before editing )

   Bonjour. Cette extension fonctionne, mais à mon avis elle n’est pas bien documentée. J’ai fait une sorte de petit mode d’emploi personnel (français/anglais) dans la rubrique Support. Hello. This plugin works, but in my opinion it is not well documented. I have made a kind of little personal manual (French / English) in the Support section.

   As another user commented previously, elementor returns a 404 not found error page once you try to edit anything, thus invalidating the entire purpose of this plugin. Creators must fix this!

   It’s almost exactly what you’re looking for, but it has one fatal error, elementor returns a 404 not found error page once you try to edit anything, thus invalidating the entire purpose of this plugin.
