WP Hooks Finder

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 · 93% 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 don’t understand why there are only 7 reviews for this plugin but I do understand why they are all 5 stars. I guess everyone else identifies hooks and actions manually 😅 ..which is totally doable but why not just use this very light, configuration-less gem? Sure other more bloated plugins also offer the same feature but I’m going to stick with this specific, ready-made solution that gets the job done right.

   This plugin is fantastic. There is zero configuration needed. You just go to a page on the front-end and choose from the drop-down what type of hooks you want to see. You then get a visual representation of them. Then you can simply deactivate the plugin until the next time you are looking for a hook. Thanks Muhammad!

   The UI is awkward a little bit, but at least it works well.

   I was going to write something myself but after this great work I stopped. One thing that would be nice, would be the ability to filter out certain hooks/filters only. In my case I want to see the WooCommerce hooks/filters only, that would be really cool to have. Thanks!
