VenoBox Lightbox

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 · 98% 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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   gave you 5 stars because of the goof who gave you only 1 when he shouldn’t have …else i’d have given it 4 🙂 please consider adding another meta option for displaying both an image title and caption – be nice to have the title at top and caption at bottom thx!

   Works perfectly for me. I’ve tried most of the free lightbox plugins out there, but this is the best one I’ve found. Thanks This topic was modified 8 years, 7 months ago by Andy.

   I like it, does the job fine. Suggestions (to make it unbeatable); 1. A ‘loading’ icon, so when there’s some waiting time people see something is happening 2. Possibility to show a ‘close’ button. Some people need such clarity 🙂 and also, on a phone it may sometimes be difficult to tap next to Venobox to close it 3. Possibility to show Venobox within the window. Sometimes I’d like to show something without need to scroll, and almost fill the whole window (googlemap f.e.) I like your approach, but would be happy to have a choice!
