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.

About this plugin
WP Attachments turns the files you upload to a post into a clean, automatic download list. Attach a file while editing, and it shows up under your content — no manual links, no shortcodes to remember.

🛍️ WooCommerce compatible, including High-Performance Order Storage
