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.

Out-of-the-box Suckerfish support.
Option to add navigation links with custom title, url and target attribute.
Unlimited number of navigation widgets.
Optional setting includes blog posts into the navigation selection list (only pages are available by default).

2.0.9 – Fixed array unserialization, which was being broken by non-US characters (i.e. German umlauts).
2.0.8 – There is a floating bug between serializing from JS into PHP and back – hopefully it’s fixed now.
2.0.7 – Fixed get_posts() 5 post limit; Added ON/OFF target attribute option to the Settings so it can be compliant with XHTML 1.0 Strict;

2.0.2 – Fixed links with apostrophes bug. (Link titles that had apostrophe in them weren’t saving.)
Conditional widget appearance is based on Daikos’ Text Widget by Rune Fjellheim.
