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 NoticeWave Popup version 1.2.1 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.0.
Overview
About this plugin
NoticeWave Popup lets you create and manage rich announcement popups for your WordPress site through a clean, step-by-step wizard. Show event notices, admission alerts, general updates, or any time-sensitive information to your visitors — with full control over when, where, and how they appear.
Key Features
5-step wizard interface — configure each announcement through a guided Setup → Schedule → Audience → Content → Action flow.
Scheduling — set a start date and end date. Announcements automatically appear and disappear on the correct day with no manual intervention needed.
Priority system — when multiple active announcements exist, the one with the highest priority (1–100) is shown first. Lower-priority ones appear after visitors dismiss the first.
Audience targeting — show a popup on all pages, the homepage only, or specific pages you choose.
Announcement types — categorise as Event, Admission, Alert, or General; each type gets a distinct color badge in the admin list.
Rich content — optional title, description (with HTML support via the WordPress content filter), and a banner image.
Call to action — choose between a clickable button (custom URL), a clickable banner image, or no action at all. WhatsApp is natively supported with country flag + dial-code selection.
Auto-close timer — optionally auto-dismiss the popup after 5, 10, or 30 seconds.
Cookie-based dismiss tracking — once a visitor closes a popup, it is suppressed for a configurable number of days so it never feels spammy.
Accessibility — full keyboard navigation, ARIA roles ( dialog, aria-modal, aria-labelledby ), focus trapping, and focus restoration on dismiss.
No external dependencies — all assets (including the intl-tel-input library for WhatsApp dial codes) are bundled locally. No CDN calls, no tracking.
Fully translatable — every admin and frontend string is wrapped in WordPress i18n functions and ready for.po /.mo translation files.
