What we found
Likely abandoned
CriticalNo update in 158 months. wp.org search heavily penalizes stale plugins, and users avoid them.
What to do: Ship a compatibility release to reset the freshness signal.
Review volume is thin
OpportunityOnly 9 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.
