Unlist Posts & Pages

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 · 53% 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.

   I’d love to see an option to “Unlist this post” from the Quick Edit area in WP for each page/post in addition to the current location under EDIT. This would just help to make it easier to access. If possible, thank you. (And if possible, please add this feature as part of the plugin itself.)Something like this: https://app.screencast.com/mnSR1RaVLStys This topic was modified 2 months, 1 week ago by Gary Gordon.

   First of all, thanks for a great plugin! I’ve been using it for a long time and it works very well overall. However, I have two problems with it: It has not been updated in a long time, not tested in the last three major versions, which means that Wordfence is soon going to flag it as an abandonned plug in. Please could you update the plugin so that we can keep using it? I use the plugin to hide some Learndash groups so that they are not visible in the front end (for example, in the Members’ Area of a membership website). While this works very well, it also prevents from listing the unlisted groups in the backend as well. For example, we can’t assign an unlisted group to a user when editing te WP user account. Please could you add an option to never unlist the pages/posts in the backend (admin panel), or to only unlist in the front end? Thank you, and keep up the good work!

   If you want to unlist lots of very old posts you have to edit every article one by one. There’s no a Bulk action in the posts lists to select various posts at once and mark them as unlisted. So if you have tens or hundreds of posts, it makes your life miserable. The action in Bulk checkboxes, could solve this. This topic was modified 10 months, 4 weeks ago by djkano.
