Wise Chat

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 · 37% 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.

   I paid for the pro version of this plugin. Simply getting an email saying a new version is available would be nice. A plugin feature would break, and I’d check the changelog on the company’s website. If an update were available, the only way to obtain it would be to email the company and request a download link. Due to this drawn-out process, I wouldn’t recommend purchasing the pro version of this plugin.

   As I’ve stated in the title of this topic, it doesn’t worth it. Why? Because imports 200 users into your user database, which I had to delete manually. It also got mixed with my real users.

   Hi Wise-Chat, I am so glad I bought this wise-chat pro and it works beautifully on my site. It has many great features than the free version. It has flood control. I can set hourly/Daily etc to cleared messages. Love the voice message, it gives the members extra to play with to have them to stay in the chatroom much longer. The facebook chat style work like a charm btw!!! Just too many to list…. Not only this is a superb chat plugin. Even tho I past my 6 months supports. I contacted the developer Marcin for few advise and surely got an email support within 24 hours! You Rock Wise-Chat!!! Thank you so very much for you wonderful chat 🙂 P.S. I am very interesting on the version 3.5.5 Video Call feature! Please keep up the good work! Rock N Roll!!! This topic was modified 2 years, 6 months ago by junglejim620.

   It’s a good plugin but I’m missing something important. An option to only allow pictures and files in group chats. I hope it comes! regards ak14985 This topic was modified 3 years, 7 months ago by ak14985. This topic was modified 3 years, 7 months ago by ak14985.

   Something has been done to the chat this summer and it became much worse. It simply stopped working. It seemed to be a really great product. I was going to buy the Pro version but now I have to delete it completely.
