Ship an update
Last release was 703 days ago. wp.org lowers a listing's search weight once it goes about 180 days without a release.

Set "Tested up to" to WordPress 7.1
Tested up to WordPress 6.5.14; the current branch is 7.1. Matching the current branch keeps its full search weight.

Swap “affiliate program” for “flower”
“affiliate program” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “flower” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

What we found
Update cadence is slipping
Needs workLast updated 23 months ago. Freshness is one of the strongest directory-ranking signals.
What to do: Get back on a visible release cadence, even minor releases.
Readme fails 5 of 8 AI readiness checks
Needs workAI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: names who it is for, names what it works with, headings and lists, enough to quote and tags match the text. One audience phrase ("if you have"); say who the plugin is for and what they use it for.
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.
Run the free AI visibility scan →Review volume is thin
OpportunityOnly 3 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.
Small download base. 114 downloads in 30 days, so a -15% move is a few installs rather than a trend.
Light support activity. Few recent support threads, so there is no backlog to report.
No open vulnerabilities recorded. No unpatched security advisory is recorded against this plugin.
