WP Job Portal – AI-Powered Recruitment System for Company or Job Board website

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

148 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 100 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

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. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 7 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 59% of the way through.

24 of the last 25 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

   Hi, I tried editing the job and user fields in the free plugin, and I noticed there are some predefined fields. There are also preset dropdown options, but I can’t find where to edit them. For example, in the ‘Employment Type *’ field, I want to add one more option but I can’t locate it. How can I change this?
