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.

How it Works
Lawyer creates a locker in WordPress admin
Plugin generates a unique URL with encryption key ( /locker/abc123/#encryption-key )
Lawyer shares this URL securely with their client
Both parties access the locker using the same URL
All messages and files are encrypted/decrypted locally in the browser
Server only stores encrypted blobs (no plaintext ever touches the server)
Security Notice
The encryption key is included in the URL fragment (after the #). This must be shared securely:
Use encrypted email (Proton)
Use secure messaging (Signal)
Use the built-in Lockbox feature
Share in-person or via phone
DO NOT send via regular email (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail) or SMS
