Token Access

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.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

At the current install trend, crossing 20+ in roughly 187 days.

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.

   We wanted a way to secure a support site for users of a paid site. The paid site is on a different platform (not WP). We weren’t looking for iron clad security, just want to keep prying eyes out. At first we thought we’d have to do some sort of database mind meld. Then I stumbled across this plugin. Now we set all support links to include a specific string at the end, and blamo, they get into the support site. If you go to the site without the string, you get a custimizable page. This was the solution for which we were looking.

   I wanted to have links on Site A (authorised members only site) to send people to Site B and allow them access to it. Without unauthorised people being able to go direct to Site B and having access. OK so a member of Site A could get the most current token and give it to friends but, I’m sure I could run a con job to update the URL token on the private page on Site A and also in the Mysql database on Site B or something. Good plugin. Took me a while to find a solution so some keywords to help others find this: Allow cross domain access to website secure token authorisation
