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.

A brief Markdown Example

Markdown is what the parser uses to process much of the readme file.

List of features:

  • Scan unlimited posts and pages to find ALL urls.
  • It will categorise each url as either “successful”, “redirected” or “link failed” to show what the status of your url is on that page.
  • Will allow you to see easily how all the links on your posts are doing and whether any are broken.
