ANAC XML Viewer

67 Quality Score

Active Installs

14/30

The popularity score is inflated relative to its 1,000 active installs because the niche is narrow, but the install base is still small compared to mainstream XML tools reaching 100,000 or more sites.

Update Freshness

22/25

Maintenance is excellent, with the plugin last updated on 2026-01-19 and confirmed tested against WordPress 6.9.4, indicating an actively maintained codebase.

User Rating

9/15

Ratings are based on only 3 reviews, all perfect, which is too small a sample to draw strong conclusions, so the 60-point score should be read with caution.

Support Health

8/15

There are zero support threads in the repository, so while the absence of complaints is positive, there is no public evidence of developer responsiveness.

WP Compatibility

15/15

Compatibility is a perfect score, with tested support for WordPress 6.9.4 and a low minimum requirement of WordPress 4.3, making it usable on a wide range of hosting setups.

What It Does

ANAC XML Viewer renders XML datasets that follow the ANAC (formerly AVCP) schema, which Italian public administrations must publish under Legge 190/2012, Article 1, paragraph 32, for anti-corruption and procurement transparency. It takes uploaded XML files and presents the structured contract and spending data in a readable format on a WordPress site. In practical terms, it lets a municipal or government office publish its public procurement records without building custom code.

Who It's For

This plugin is built for Italian public sector bodies, including municipalities, regional agencies, and government contractors, that are legally required to publish ANAC-format XML datasets. It suits site administrators with minimal development resources who need a turnkey solution for transparency reporting on procurement and contracts. It is also relevant for consultancies managing compliance websites on behalf of Italian municipalities.

Who Should Skip It

Anyone outside the Italian public sector compliance context, or anyone needing a general-purpose XML viewer or feed importer, will find this plugin useless. If you need to import, transform, or display arbitrary XML or CSV data, a general importer like WP All Import is a far better fit.

The Bottom Line

ANAC XML Viewer is a well-maintained, narrowly focused tool that solves a specific Italian regulatory problem and does it competently, earning a 69.93/100 quality score. Its tiny install base and lack of public support activity are real concerns, but for the exact audience it targets, it likely works. If you fall outside that audience, do not install it.

Choose WP All Import when you need to import arbitrary XML or CSV data into WordPress as posts, pages, or custom content rather than render ANAC-formatted procurement records.

XML Sitemap & Google News 83/100

Pick XML Sitemap & Google News if your goal is generating XML sitemaps for search engines, which is an entirely different function from displaying ANAC transparency data.

WPeMatico RSS Feed Fetcher 80/100

WPeMatico is the right choice for pulling external RSS or XML feeds into WordPress automatically, whereas ANAC XML Viewer focuses on displaying local compliance files.

Companion Sitemap Generator – Simple, Smart, and SEO-Ready 79/100

Use Companion Sitemap Generator for lightweight XML sitemap creation aimed at SEO, not for publishing structured anti-corruption procurement datasets.

Get Use APIs – JSON Content Importer 79/100

JSON Content Importer is the better option if you want to fetch and display JSON or XML from external APIs as WordPress content, rather than render pre-existing ANAC XML files.
