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
HeartApproval adds a complete client photo proofing workflow to WordPress. Create a gallery, upload your images, and send your client a private access link. Clients can review the gallery on desktop or mobile, mark their favorite images, and leave precise comments directly on individual photos.
When the selection is complete, the client can finalize the gallery to prevent further changes. You can then export the selected images as a ZIP archive or download the selection data as CSV.
