Zeno Font Resizer

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.

44 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 22 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.

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 · 46% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 4 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 64% of the way through.

   I need a way to target multiple CSS targets. My template has two CSS classes that have content in them, I need to target both.

   I injected the PHP fragment using the plugin Head, Footer and Post Injections In the “posts” / “just before content”, section, it works like a charm enabling my users to actually see a theme that is genuinely responsive, so many that claim to be responsive, break up words, when they just shouldn’t. Giving the end user the ability to choose their own font size genuinely makes my current theme much more responsive, regardless of which client, OS or guess of both my site thinks its being rendered on… My only one teeny gripe, I’d love to be able to put a simple label just before the triple A that’s used to adjust the font size, while it should be configurable, I think I’d go for something like “For your comfort please do change the font size:” (the triple A is nicely centered with the content so there is plenty of room for a label) Good solid working plugin, just does what it says, the only complication is how you inject it, but then there is even available a short code plugin for it. I wanted an option I wouldn’t forget to add to each post (I don’t like side bars – messes with responsiveness) So injecting it with another plugin just works like a charm – but do be careful with injections, get it wrong and you might need to ftp in and disable the plugin, but then with anything that modifies a theme on the fly, that can always happen.

   So much so, .. That I’ve incorporated it into my site and heavily hacked it with header messages and pretty href links, which also means that I’ll never be able to upgrade it without taking the code apart. But it really is worth the trouble. The plugin is so simple to work, and it gives your users such a powerful tool in viewing your amusing ditties, (well I think they’re amusing), and now the users can’t moan that the font size is too small or too big; they can now set the text size that they are comfortable in reading. Seriously, click on the aAA widget and the text inside the DIVs gets bigger or smaller, with even the cookies being taken care of, and what that means: is it’s prefect for theme developers to play with. There are other options for non-themers to get the text to grown or shrink. User side wise: there is a short-code version, and also a PHP hack to put it wherever you want on your site, but I just physically worked it into my sidebar. Highly recommended.

   It’s the best Font Resize plugin available. Easy to use, customize and flexible. It would be even better if we can choose the unit between “px” and “em“. Thanks a lot.
