AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Hide Plugins is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 9 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Hide Plugins works
Hide Plugins is a light-weight plugin that gives a single admin user the ability to hide plugins prevent them from being activated, deactivated, or deleted by clients and other users, including administrators. By activating Hide Plugins, you will be able to see all plugins and a toggle to hide each plugin from other users on the Plugins page. Hide Plugins will always remain hidden.
Note that the dropdown on the Edit Plugins page will not be affected, since it does not have a filter to hook into. Hidden plugins will remain active, so traces of the plugin in areas other than the Plugins page (like options pages in the admin menu) will still be visible. If you also want to hide menus, we recommend using Admin Menu Editor.
