What we found

✕

Likely abandoned

Critical

No update in 40 months. wp.org search heavily penalizes stale plugins, and users avoid them.

What to do: Ship a compatibility release to reset the freshness signal.

Readme fails 4 of 8 AI readiness checks

Needs work

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: has a faq, faq asks real questions, names who it is for and names what it works with. Only 1 question in the FAQ; 3 or more gives an assistant something to match.

What to do: Rewrite the readme so each failed check passes: say the job in the first line, answer real questions in the FAQ, name who it is for and what it works with, and use headings and lists. For the same check on your plugin's own website, run the free AI visibility scan from AgentVania.

Review volume is thin

Opportunity

Only 7 ratings. A handful of reviews makes your star average fragile and weakens trust at install time.

What to do: Run a structured in-plugin review prompt and a review campaign.
