View User Metadata

61 Quality Score

Active Installs

14/30

Active installs of roughly 1,000 place it in a niche category, so popularity is moderate despite a maxed-out subscore that reflects its low support ticket volume.

Update Freshness

23/25

Last updated in early February 2026 and tested against WordPress 6.9.4 shows the developer is actively maintaining the plugin against current core releases.

User Rating

3/15

A perfect 100 from a single rating tells us almost nothing about real-world satisfaction, so the 20-of-15 rating score reflects insufficient sample size rather than proven quality.

Support Health

8/15

With zero support threads opened or resolved, there is no track record to judge responsiveness, leaving support health effectively unproven.

WP Compatibility

15/15

Compatible with WordPress 4.6 through 6.9.4 and requiring only PHP 5.6, the plugin runs on virtually any modern WordPress host.

What It Does

View User Metadata is a back-office tool that adds a screen in wp-admin where you can browse every user meta key and value stored on your WordPress users. From that screen you can export the metadata in CSV or JSON format, or delete specific key/value pairs without writing custom queries.

Who It's For

This plugin fits site administrators and developers who need to inspect, clean up, or audit the user_meta table, particularly on membership, subscription, or marketplace sites where third-party plugins and CRMs leave behind orphaned meta. It is also useful for short data audit tasks tied to compliance or GDPR cleanup work.

Who Should Skip It

If you only need to view or edit the standard fields on a user profile (name, email, role), the built-in WordPress user editor is enough and you do not need this plugin. Owners of small sites with fewer than a handful of stored meta keys per user will get little value from the export or delete features.

The Bottom Line

View User Metadata does a small job and does it on a current WordPress core, but the lack of any user ratings, support history, or known alternatives means you are relying on one maintainer with limited public feedback. It is a reasonable pick for a developer who needs a quick viewer/exporter, yet most production sites will want a more established user management tool before trusting it with mass deletions.
