Simple Page Ordering

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 · 44% 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.

   Cool plugin in itself. Now if only the page attributes would be updated when reordering…..oh wait! I see that they do! Incredible, so you can output them with a query as intended and give the customer a better experience again. Thank you very much. I registered only for this review. Thank you !

   We’d struggled for a while implementing custom sort functionality for a long complex list for a client selling cameras … until we found this plugin. All the issues we were having with a competitor’s premium plugin were solved by switching to this plugin. The main thing was that we were able to manually sort on a custom post type whilst using custom filters. Works like a dream.

   This makes life so much easier – just drag pages and put them in the order yo want them. So much easier than editing and trying to remember what number comes next. Thanks so much for this.

   Simple Page Ordering is a fantastic plugin for WordPress that I highly recommend. One of the standout features of this plugin is its ease of use – it’s incredibly intuitive and straightforward to navigate. The interface is simple and clean, making it easy to reorder pages and posts with just a few clicks. What’s even more impressive is that Simple Page Ordering works seamlessly with other plugins, including the BetterDocs Plugin. I’ve had trouble with other page ordering plugins in the past, but this one has worked flawlessly. I think Simple Page Ordering is a must-have plugin for anyone looking to reorder their WordPress pages and posts quickly and easily.
