Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

After activating the plugin, you will have two new template tags at your disposal:

>

They adapt their output depending on whether the date archive is a day, a month,

or a year, and they will only output a link for an adjacent time period in which you

have published posts. Both tags take two string parameters, format and link.

The format parameter defines what comes before and after the link. In it, %link

will be replaced with whatever is declared in the link parameter below. previous_archive_link

defaults to “ « %link ” and next_archive_link defaults to “ %link » “.

The link parameter defines the link text. Both tags default to “ %date “, the

adjacent archive page’s localized date.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
