Simple Content Templates for Blog Posts & Pages

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 · 91% 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.

   A Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability CVE-2025062958 has been known for well over 6 months, and it seems likely that the software will not be updated to fix (the last update was six months ago). There are others, and we’ll be migrating away ASAP. Stay away.

   Gutenberg is not supported. If you use the classic editor, most likely this is not critical for you.

   A template has the purpose to serve as a template and not as a public pattern. Especially with large similarly structured data one wants to make use of the internal. But if the whole thing is also public, that has too many disadvantages. Unfortunately, the plugin missed its target. The integration into the theme is nice, but not more. Who has no problem that the template is public, which is hereby helped, but not the rest.
