Wp Subcribe Author

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.

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.

   Just installed this plugin to my site and liek that it works out of the box without a lot of adjustments to be made. The subscription form will only become viewable when the reader clicks on the author’s name – there appears to be no indication that readers can subscribe, though.

   Plugin worked perfectly, though documentation is lacking. To actually USE the plugin, I just added this function where I wanted the subscribe button to show up: get_subcribe_link(); And the class of the link that’s generated is: “wp-subcribe-author-url” so you can style it with that. NOTE THE TYPO! It’s “subcribe” not subscribe. The only feature that I think would be helpful is to have something show up asking visitors who aren’t logged in to register or sign up to subscribe. I guess I will have to make that on my own!
