Say there is a plugin in the repository that has “100+” active installs. Would the next threshold be “1000+” active installs, or is there a lower bracket (say, “500+”)?
Are orders of magnitude of 10 used here? (100, 1000, 10 000 etc?) Or is there some other system at play?
I was curious and checked out the lists of
-
popular plugins,
-
newest plugins (not in the Plugin Directory menu),
-
last updated plugins (not in the Plugin Directory menu).
This seems to be the range for the active installs:
1+ million
900.000+
800.000+
700.000+
600.000+
500.000+
400.000+
300.000+
200.000+
100.000+
90.000+
80.000+
70.000+
60.000+
50.000+
40.000+
30.000+
20.000+
10.000+
9.000+
8.000+
7.000+
6.000+
5.000+
4.000+
3.000+
2.000+
1.000+
and for the lower end:
900+
800+
700+
600+
500+
400+
300+
200+
100+
90+
80+
70+
60+
50+
40+
30+
20+
10+
Less than 10
There are still some plugins on this list that shows the number of downloads, but all these seems to have Less than 10 active installs.
I also checked
https://code.svn.wordpress.org/
to see if the source of the plugins pages or the plugins lists where available but didn’t find it there.
