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
Welcomify supports two ways to display content on the dashboard, depending on your page builder:
For Elementor & Bricks (Templates)
Go to Elementor > Templates or Bricks > Templates and create a new template
Design your welcome dashboard content and save the template
Go to Welcomify in the admin menu
Select your template from the Elementor Templates or Bricks Templates section in the dropdown
Assign it to a user role and save
For Gutenberg, Divi, Beaver Builder, Breakdance & Others (Pages)
Create a new WordPress page using your preferred page builder
Design your welcome dashboard content — the page can be published, private, or even password protected
Go to Welcomify in the admin menu
Select your page from the Pages section in the dropdown — it will show a label indicating which builder was used
Assign it to a user role and save
That’s it! When users visit the WordPress dashboard, they will see your custom content instead of the default welcome panel.
