Mang Board

76 Quality Score

Active Installs

17/30

With 9,000 active installs and an inflated popularity sub-score of 59/30, the plugin has a modest but real user base that is likely concentrated in Korean-language sites.

Update Freshness

25/25

A perfect 100/25 maintenance score combined with a July 2026 update indicates the single developer is actively and recently shipping code.

User Rating

11/15

A 74/100 rating from only 15 reviewers is statistically thin, so the score reflects a small, possibly self-selected sample rather than broad consensus.

Support Health

8/15

A 50/15 support health score with zero threads and zero resolutions on the WordPress.org forum means there is effectively no public support channel in English.

WP Compatibility

15/15

A 100/15 compatibility score is strong on paper: tested with WordPress 7.0, requires only PHP 5.5.1, and the recent update suggests modern WP readiness.

What It Does

Mang Board WP is an all-in-one community bulletin board plugin that bundles a gallery, calendar, forum, form, and FAQ module into a single package. It is designed for site owners who want to launch a small community or noticeboard-style site without stitching together five separate plugins. The Korean-language tagging (망보드) suggests the project originates from a Korean developer audience.

Who It's For

This plugin suits hobbyist site owners, small clubs, or Korean-community website operators who want a single drop-in board with several built-in features rather than a specialized solution. It works best on modest sites where one admin manages everything and where the bundled feature set is genuinely useful rather than incidental. If you already use bbPress for forums and need only a calendar, you are probably overbuying.

Who Should Skip It

Anyone running a high-traffic community, a production-grade forum, or an English-first site needing polished documentation should look elsewhere. If you only need one of the five features (forums, galleries, calendars, forms, or FAQ), dedicated plugins will outperform a bundled product on quality and support.

The Bottom Line

Mang Board WP scores 76.31/100 overall, and the data shows a recently maintained but thinly supported niche plugin. It is a reasonable choice for a Korean-language community site that genuinely wants all five bundled features in one install, but the zero public support threads and tiny review pool mean you are betting on a single developer. For most English-speaking users with a single-feature need, the alternatives list is clearly stronger.
