How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
What its installed base runs

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
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.

I use this to create a nice index of my album pages. Being able to specify the page category makes this super-easy.

Plugin works as it’s intended, but it took quite a while to find the documentation. Found a lot of references to shortcodes, but couldn’t actually find working demos/examples for a solid 20 minutes after installing. Instructions on the plugin page/settings weren’t very helpful, had to go to the author’s website. Seems like information that could be easily included on the WordPress plugin homepage or in the Admin settings.

I’ve been using this for quite a while now, on many sites. It is the BEST plugin to use if you are looking for a gallery plugin, but don’t want to hassle with the other options.

I’ve been using this plug-in for YEARS. It is on one of the most trafficked pages on my website – a visual archive or recipes. Without it I would have had to spend days, weeks or months trying to figure out how to tweak PHP. Instead it was really easy to get this to work out of the box and the plug-in author has continued to maintain and change it. A while back, I posted in support that none of the thumbnails had and “ALT” attribute and that this was seen as an error from W3C website checker. Guess what?!?! She updated the plug-in to add this! Before that she did extensive trouble-shooting with me in the support forum to style the grid as I wanted. Really a FANTASTIC plug-in with FANTASTIC support. Thanks and keep-up the good work. I wish all the other plug-ins that I use were as well supported and updated as this one. Ciao, L

With a little tweaking on the plugin attributes, I was able to achieve the result I was looking for for a while. A request made in the support section was quickly replied to by the creator and was indeed implemented in the plugin a few days later in a new version! Thank you

Great Plugin with some nice options – displays ellipsis for too long titles, titles on or off. Very nice!

Great plugin, I had an issue with my grid (probably because I’m not very technical!)but the support was excellent. Adrian was quick to help until my problem was fixed. Love my new grid!
