Peformancing has recently announced the release of a new pMetrics plugin for WordPress, which is considered revolutionary and a “major step forward in WordPress plugin technology.” According to Ryan Caldwell, the idea behind the new plugin is to move away from the usual manual way of updating software and plugins, which is especially tedious when running a big number of blogs.
In a nutshell here’s what the pMetrics plugin offers:
- Auto-updates (this option can be toggled on and off)
- One-click installs for added functionality
- One-click removals (deletes files off the server)
- Blog stats in your WordPress dashboard
- Latest searches display
- pMetrics rank display
- Auto-installation of pMetrics javascript code
This new software architecture was done on top of the Performancing pMetrics API. Performancing promises added features soon, such as auto-installation of affiliate banner in sidebar, blog sales page with detailed pMetrics statistics, and feedburner integration.
