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.

WP PlugIndex currently records HGW Better internal link search for Block editor version 1.0.2 as active, updated 11mo ago and tested up to WordPress 6.9.
Overview
About this plugin
HGW Better internal link search for Block editor improves the default internal link search inside the block editor by adding a post type or category selector to the link popup.
This allows editors to narrow down search results to specific post types such as Posts, Pages, or custom post types.
Features
Adds a clean “post type and category filter” dropdown above Block editor link search results.
Works with all REST-visible and publicly queryable post types.
No database queries or custom endpoints — fully uses WordPress core APIs.
Loads only inside the editor, never on the front-end.
Lightweight, fast, and compatible with all major themes and plugins.
