Does the job! Responsive and helpful support team

By sunnyhova on November 30, 2024

Was using WordPress Popular Posts to see pages getting visits on my website until it stopped working. Had to look for alternatives and found this. Installed it but it still didn't work. I had to remove it and lo and behold, an email from the developer! Couldn't believe it because I haven't seen that before.

To cut a long story short, he helped me to resolve the problem and the plugin works like a charm!

I definitely recommend. 5 stars.

Not good as Popular post widget

By Pierre236 (Pierreto) on June 10, 2024

Since the widgets in my Soledad theme (pencidesign) don't allow you to choose post types (well, they do, but as always, it doesn't work), I installed the Popular Post plugin.

The plugin works perfectly and looks good, but it says it's out of date and needs changing.

So I installed this plugin, with lots of useless options and inconsistent settings between the widget and the admin configuration.

But the display is ugly, the photos don't adapt automatically and perfectly, like Popular Post, and like the old plugins, before the arrival of tablet and mobile, it asks you to set sizes for the photos.

But what size to set?

There's no option for desktop, tablet or mobile!

Good programmers have images that adapt to the device!

I thought I'd have to buy the pro version for the display to be correct, but after registering on the site, there's nothing.

So it's a shame to see Wordpress going downhill, evolving in the wrong direction and good plugins disappearing.

Good Replacement for WPP

By vipo on April 11, 2024

I was forced to replace WordPress Popular Posts (plugin is banned from Kinsta Hosting) and was happy to find Top-10. Does a nice job, but not yet as versatile as WPP. Already has a lot of extension points (hooks), which i'll further investigate (e.g. showing category names after title/excerpt). Developer seems responsive and very supportive, which is nice!

The Best One

By idlogs on August 11, 2023

Use this plugin since 2018 for all my sites, easy to install and configure. Just one time issue with my new site, but it's solved.

Nice plugin, awesome features and plus great support!

Big Thank You!

As improved my page views and time on site

By ianhparker on September 19, 2022

Using WordPress, I created a reusable block and add the most popular posts over the last 24 hours to the end of every news story (it's a news site). Since adding that feature, my page views and time on site have nearly doubled, it helps to present my readers with other posts that are relevant at the time. Even if someone finds a news article that is a few years old through a web search, at the end of the article it will display the most current trending stories to encourage people to keep reading. Works great. I recommend.

Good plugin
