Simple Taxonomy Refreshed

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. 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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   Does the job! Well done!I have a custom post type with more than 1000 entries that has some custom taxonomies inside each entry. I need a bulk system to migrate easly. I tried “Bulk move” and it works, but this plugin is just better 😉

   I am not a code man, I use WordPress that’s all, for years I wanted to add very simple taxonomy to my sites, such as brand and manufacturer. I never managed, now with this tool I managed in 5 minutes! thanks a lot!

   And god knows why the least downloaded. It comes with many pro features, like extract terms from other existing taxonomies, import and export terms, so you can create your new hierarchical taxonomy in the blink of an eye.
