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 GlobalDev Internal Links version 1.1.1 as active, updated 3mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.0.
Overview
About this plugin
GlobalDev Internal Links adds internal links while WordPress renders eligible singular content. It does not rewrite the content stored in the database and does not require an external service.
The plugin first looks for complete published titles. It can also generate conservative multi-word phrases from those titles, which makes automatic linking more useful when normal articles mention a subject without repeating another article’s complete headline.
When no safe inline phrase exists, the optional related-content fallback can append a compact list selected from shared categories, tags, and meaningful title terms. This is useful for older or placeholder content where no suitable anchor phrase appears inside the paragraphs.
Controlled automatic linking:
Keeps full-title matching as the strongest signal.
Generates only multi-word title phrases; it does not create arbitrary single-word anchors.
Uses taxonomy and title-term relevance to resolve ambiguous phrases.
Skips a phrase when multiple destinations remain equally ambiguous.
Keeps one stable canonical destination when duplicate published titles exist.
Never links an item to itself.
Uses each inline destination no more than once on the same page.
Skips headings, existing links, scripts, styles, code, preformatted content, form controls, and buttons.
Leaves the stored WordPress editor content unchanged.
