Biggest opportunity: Add “up”, “sign in” and “scheduled tasks” to your wp.org tags. You rank #5, #6 and #10 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 1K of 68.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,764 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 4 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

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.

What to do about it
- Add “up”, “sign in” and “scheduled tasks” to your wp.org tags. You rank #5, #6 and #10 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.
- One page off on “volunteer”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I’ve encountered a few questions here and there as part of a relatively new implementation of the Sheets plugin. The support responses are always fast and accurate. Based on a long history of WordPress and a large number of plugins along the way, this experience is wonderful. A genuine breath of fresh air. THANK YOU!

I submitted an issue with our sign-up sheets and Steph resolved it in less than an hour. That’s quick! Thanks to the support team for being on top of your plugin and helping your folks resolve things.

Sign-up Sheets is very easy to use and considerably simplifies our service club’s event registrations and email confirmations and reminders. Steph responded very quickly (and on a weekend) and was able to solve a couple of problems we encountered that were impeding sign-ups when we were getting close to a major fundraiser of ours.

Pros:Basic Signups are okAllows imagesAllows some error checking in signups (email, double signups)Allows hiding of personal informationNot sure there is anything better out there… Cons:Email notifications are spotty, sometimes they work sometimes they don’tCustomizations for individual events are not intuitive and assume an in-depth understanding of how to manage the global settingsDebugging notification settings is a headache, especially if it’s only a certain type of reminder (i.e., reminders before the event, removals, confirmation of signup, )A non-technical person cannot easily manage the signup sheets Support is slow to respond and sometimes doesn’t respond at all. Our organization had high hopes for this plugin but overall we are not happy with the notifications being the weakest link. We upgraded to a new ISP and upgraded our PHP and it did not help.

Steph responded to my email very quickly and helped me resolve my issue. He pointed me in the right direction until the problem was resolved. Great plugin too. Looked everywhere for something like this. We use it in our Jazz Club to organise the volunteers. Thanks so much! Very much recommended.

Fetch Designs answered my email almost immediately and directed me on how to find information I needed and gave clear instructions on how to resolve an issue. They had me up in running with in no time. Thank you so much. I highly recommend their products

Steph has been responsive to messages and genuinely seems interested in improving the product.

I had purchased the pro version and was thrilled to find a plug-in that did what I needed. We have to limit and sign people up to attend services, allow them to cancel, and have a random person print off the list when I am not at work from another computer. The pro version had looked great except it created CSS issues with my theme. Steph at Fetch to the rescue. She not only took a look at the problem, but installed a solution making every thing perfect. Later I asked for another update, and Steph is adding it to features on the next update! Thank you for you expertise!!!
