Slide Puzzle

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 · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

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.

   We wanted to include a puzzle in our new website, but had a very specific idea of how we wanted it to work. We were excited when we found this plugin, but were disappointed when it did not operate how we hoped. I dug through the PHP and Javascript trying to tweak it, but my knowledge is limited so I didn’t get very far. We had pretty much decided to scrap the whole puzzle idea, but I decided it was worth trying to reach the developer of the plugin for assistance. I posted in their support forum, and got a response the same day! I explained what we were trying to accomplish, and no only did the dev help me make some changes myself – when I was still struggling, they had me provide them with an admin login to my site and they went in and fixed it for me! I couldn’t have asked for anything more, and now the plugin does exactly what we wanted it to do! HUGE thanks to the developer of this highly recommended plugin. It’s a very simple plugin, but it does exactly what it’s supposed to do – and MORE (if you ask).
