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. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records Hierarchical Link Categories version 2.0.1 as active, updated 13y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.5.

Overview

About this plugin

Finally, Choose Parent Categories for Link Categories

One of the problems with WordPress’ built-in blogroll/bookmark functionality is that you can’t choose to create nested categories (sub-categories) for the links. This is silly, and makes the functionality nearly useless.

Treat yourself to some nested blogroll categories

This plugin allows link categories to have parent categories (makes link categories “hierarchical”), saving you time and maybe even saving the world.

The plugin also now includes a widget!
