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 Docs version 1.0.2 as active, updated 7mo ago and tested up to WordPress 6.9.
Overview
About this plugin
This plugin allows you to create documents with WordPress, and to share them with others so they can also read and edit. Share the unique link to let anyone edit, or restrict access to specific email addresses.
With the Gutenberg plugin, Docs supports real-time collaborative editing — multiple users can edit the same document simultaneously, seeing each other’s cursors and changes live.
Sharing
The share panel (in the document sidebar) lets you control access:
Anyone with the link — anonymous users get a randomly generated animal name and emoji avatar (e.g. “Anonymous Fox”). They can edit text but cannot upload files.
Specific people — invite collaborators by email. They receive a magic link to access the editor. Email-invited users can upload files.
Existing users — add collaborators from the user autocomplete. They get full editing and upload access.
Restricted — only the document author and invited people can access.
How it works
Documents live entirely in wp-admin — there’s no public frontend. Each doc gets a unique and secret shareable URL that opens the editor directly.
Anonymous visitors don’t create any database entries. Their identity exists only in a browser cookie and disappears when it expires.
Email-invited people are created as real WordPress users (without a role) so their edits show up in revision history. They log in via magic links sent to their email.
