XT Event Widget for Social Events

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. 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   My problem was quite a thing, making the plugin work with my WordPress theme of choise – Newspaper. The support team really went beyond their ways to help me, and now everything works. See the plugin in action at judoroland.com

   Easy to install and nice way to showcase my events. After some changes from FB’s side I had to re-install the plugin and then needed support as I am unfamiliar with coding and such. The support team was super swift and professional and sorted the glitch, so now everything is running great again. Recommending them 100%.

   I was trying to authorize this plugin with no luck. So after a few emails back and forth, one of their support reps actually scheduled a skype call with me where he solved my problem through one screen sharing session. Great service!!

   What was a great plugin, has been subjected to a change in Facebook Terms. While I want to support this plugin, it ultimately no longer works. There isn’t much point downloading it but it was good while it lasted

   This is a fantastic plugin that mirrors facebook events with a very simple one line of Shortcode. The Xylus support team go waaay above and beyond to help webadmins if they have any trouble getting it working. I highly recommend this plugin.
