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 Sherpa Managed Documents version 1.5.6 as active, updated 13d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Sherpa Managed Documents provides a dedicated administration area for documents that need a permanent public URL.
Administrators and authorised users can add an existing Media Library document or upload a new managed document. Replacement versions are published in place, retaining the attachment ID, uploads path, permanent filename and public URL.
Features include:
Permanent document URLs that remain unchanged when new versions are published.
Readable document names that are separate from physical filenames.
Searchable, sortable and filterable Media Library selection.
Document version numbers and replacement history.
Optional private storage of previous files for rollback.
Separate user permissions for document management and version restoration.
A Copy URL control for adding managed-document links to pages, posts and emails.
Optional LiteSpeed Cache URL purging after replacement.
The plugin supports non-image files stored in the local WordPress uploads directory. Replacement files must use the same extension as the current document.
Created by Sherpa Digital.
Important behaviour
Version 1.1 supports non-image attachments.
Stable URL replacements require the same extension as the existing file.
The plugin does not add MIME types that WordPress does not already allow.
Local WordPress uploads are supported. Media offload systems require a provider-specific adapter.
LiteSpeed single-URL cache purging is requested when its public hook is available.
Other integrations can listen to sdfr_file_replaced.
