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.

WP PlugIndex currently records Chapcast – Podcast Chapters version 1.1.8 as active, updated 13d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Chapcast adds a Podcast chapters meta box in the editor where you can enter start times and titles. On the front end, visitors see the standard HTML5 audio player plus a list of chapters; clicking a chapter jumps to that position in the audio.
Audio URL is resolved automatically: Seriously Simple Podcasting episode file, first audio file attached to the post (upload in editor), Audio block / [audio] shortcode in content, or a manual override / media library picker in the meta box.
Shortcode [chapcast_player] for manual placement (otherwise the player is appended after the post content when chapters exist). The legacy tag [spc_player] is still registered for backward compatibility.
Settings screen under Settings → Podcast Chapters (help text + toggle automatic player placement).
Media Library (list view): Chapters column on audio files shows whether chapter rows are saved on the attachment.
Filters for developers: chapcast_post_types, chapcast_audio_url, chapcast_append_player_to_content.
