User Access Manager

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 · 39% 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.

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.

   Hello, the plugin is perfect, than you. Only one questions – is it possible to export all users of “group1” for example? It is useful for other plugins (Notification) what aren’t able to work with UAM groups. Thx J.

   This plugin has made 3 plugins superfluous for me. It can create and restrict new backend user roles. It can also hide menu items individually etc. Great work!

   Easy to use. Restrict some categories went smooth. For me, it replaced PublishPress Capabilities.

   Hello, This is a great plugin for WordPress. I am very curious if this plugin is still supported. I mean is the developer(s) still active? Because is it posible to set the inlog widget to dutch, and is it possible When user A logs in he sees menu A and when user B logs in he sees menu B.

   With new update they demand to have at least php 7.3 and then the site crashes. Why not just approve to use the plugin with 7.2 as well, not that big difference This topic was modified 5 years, 4 months ago by jenshagman.
