Snow Monkey Editor

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   This is the most convenient plugin for everyday work, but… does not allow the user to have multiple roles on the site. This multiplies all of its features by zero. You can’t use it on membership sites (LMS, marketplace, etc).

   The plugin is a good idea and adds a lot of additional features, styles and visibility controls to many Gutenberg elements. But it slows down the editor significantly. Each click into the paragraph editor or each new line takes a second longer (you can see the delay each time) which makes it a very frustrating editing experience. For example clicking between paragraphs adds at least a 1 second delay – so you feel like you’re working on a 90s computer. I presume it’s because all the additional styles and options are being loaded. Guess it’s the price you need to pay for additional features – unless the author finds a way to speed things up (delayed loading, parallel loading etc).
