1 critical 2 to fix 1 opportunity
✕

Likely abandoned

Critical

No update in 97 months. wp.org search heavily penalizes stale plugins, and users avoid them.

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

!

Downloads are cooling

Needs work

30-day download momentum is -15% while the Security category median is +11%. The decline is steeper than the market, which points at something plugin-specific.

What to do: A coordinated content + outreach push can re-ignite installs.

Readme fails 4 of 8 AI readiness checks

Needs work

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: names who it is for, names what it works with, headings and lists and enough to quote. Never says who the plugin is for or 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.

Review volume is thin

Opportunity

Only 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.
