YOP Poll

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.

82 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 55 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

Directory rank vs rivals

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 3 years ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 50% of the way through.

   Great plugin, simple to use, just what I need. One small improvement would be for the text on the button to be editable. I’m using it to find out where visitors heard about us, and clicking on ‘Vote’ seems a bit odd in that situation. I’d like to be able to change it to (for example) ‘Submit’ … just like what I’m about to do to send this review !!

   Highly recommended if you need simple yet customizable poll. It can handle multiple polls and shuffle them randomly.

   Have been using this plugin for 7 years in operational mode. It’s been stable and efficient. And a great support. Had to migrate old data and the support team took the ticket and provided a solution quickly while in the middle of the end-of-year holidays.

   I bought the Pro and lifetime support, but did not recieve anything and also no response on the contact form. No other way to reach them because their e-mails also does not lead to anything but mail return to sender. Save your money! Not worth the hassle. (Update: After the review, They contacted me and got the money back.) This topic was modified 2 years, 3 months ago by royalfth.

   When the survey ends, the valid vote amounts are written, but when we look at the logs, there are more votes cast.In my opinion, in the survey results, the number of votes cast in the total vote log records and the valid votes should be written in the valid votes section.Additionally, a solution must be found for proxy logins.

   The free version of this plugin is way too limited! I understand that everybody wants to make money but to find out if a plugin will meet my needs I need a little bit more to work with. That’s besideds the fact that the user interface to setup a poll is very confusing. Lastly, when you uninstall the plugin it asks if you want to remove the plugin and all its data. Unfortunately it leaves the database cluttered with 9 wp_yoppoll_*database tables. That’s not what I understand under “remove all its data”!
