I am looking for a couple of plugins and maybe you guys can help me out…
First, I need a plugin that lets me view Google Analytics data for all of my web sites. I am using the Yoast GAD plugin and it doesn't let me create custom reports and I have to log into each site to view GA data, or I have to log into Google Analytics to access data from all the sites, but the GA user-interface was made by NASA for engineers, not web guys like me.
Second, I need a plugin that can email me every day with a list of posts for the previous day and stats on who posted. We want to start enforcing that all reporters create “n” posts a day and I'm looking for a way to monitor that.
I've searched CodeCanyon and the repository with no luck. But you guys seem to have a magic touch in finding gems.

Gravity Forms: Force SSL
Available on github or from us here
This plugin is a bit different from most that I usually check out since i discoered it while searching for a solution to forcing a specific gavity form to be ssl on a site I was working on. While looking for the solution I came across this one on github. This is one of the reasons to be using a great premium plugin like Gravity Forms that is so well supported by the community. This plug in is simple and works great install activate then goto your form and tell it to be SSl and works great.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/html5-slideshow-presentations/
With this plugin, You'll be able to create a presentation in no time using WordPress' familiar built-in toolset, and the best part is, You won't need to upload to slideshare when you're done! You're hosting your own presentations and can share/present them anytime.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/sidebarautomizer/
This plugin will prevent sidebar height to overgrown content height and as a result we got a equalized content and sidebar heights. It is based on javascript that will remove last widget from sidebar while sidebar height is higher than content height.
Update from Bottom
https://wordpress.org/plugins/update-from-bottom/
This shows two extra buttons (Scroll to top and Publish/Update) in the bottom of the screen when user scrolls near bottom. Suitable for posts and pages with a lot of meta boxes, or when edit.php just tends to get very long.
