Wapuuvatar

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 70+ in roughly 99 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.

   For all those users who don’t have an avatar set-up, use a random Wapuu instead! Show your love for the WordPress mascot in the best way possible. Install and activate the plugin and then just switch, in your settings, to using Wapuu – you’re all set. A fun plugin.

   It’s working like a charm on my site. Love seeing Wapuus scattered about for those who are gravatarless.:)

   The only change I’d make is to have it only run if the person doesn’t have a gravatar. But other than that, having wapuu all over as an avatar is awesome 🙂 This was my fav plugin to review for the week! Edit Now that it’s working for only people without gravatar, I’m the happiest damn elf on the planet!
