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 POV Sliders version 1.0.4 as active, updated 13y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.5.

Overview

About this plugin

This plugin was created out of necessity for a project where we had to set some content to be “featured”. The client was unhappy with marking posts as “sticky” and wanted a single interface to manage all featured content.

The plugin shows the 50 most recent posts on the left hand side of the appearance screen page and the featured content on the right. You can simply drag and drop items from left to right and that order will be maintained in the ‘pov_slider_featured_posts’ option.

A search has been implemented to search further back than the 50 most recent posts.

In your theme, you can get the featured posts by using the pov_slider_get_featured_posts function.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
