AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Purify Menus is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Menu category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 6 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.

No undesirable visual effects The visual appearance of menus and category lists in the frontend remains unchanged in most cases. If you should see an undesirable visual effect to the menus and category lists in your theme, then you can activate the needed CSS classes on the plugin’s options page.
Deactivate it and keep your settings If you deactivate the plugin, your settings remains. If you activate the plugin again, your last settings will be used. You do not need to go over all settings again.
Residue-free deletion If you delete the plugin via the WordPress ‘Plugin’ menu, your settings will be deleted, too. No useless option remains in the WordPress database.
Default setting: Marks the current menu item only The default setting is to output only the CSS classes for the navigation menu items of the current post and the current category.

select and deselect in detail every CSS menu item class the WordPress core functions wp_nav_menu(), wp_page_menu() and wp_list_categories() generate
