Slash Edit: Admin Shortcuts to Edit Posts and Pages Faster

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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Proof that sometimes the simplest things can make a profound difference. It’s making its way into every WordPress install I touch. Thank you!

   Such a great idea! On sites with a lot of content (and no admin bar), this is a real timesaver.

   No overhead for any frills or thrills leading to spills, just a great tool for adding ‘/edit’ at the address bar to go right where you want to go! I have just added it to all sites. Many thanks!

   The idea behind this plugin is genius, and the plugin is very well written. It even has a filter in just the right place so you can extend it if you have some special needs (e.g. a page is using a template where the main content might not necessarily be the page in the backend).

   This is a convenient way top edit posts and pages, especially if you have the admin bar disabled or don’t like it. The shortcut is easy to remember as well.
