Biggest opportunity: “addons kit”, “directory” and “directory websites” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

How it's measured →12%
of downloads still active
At least 9K of 74.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,266 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |

| directorist | #3 | #16 | 0 |
| addons kit your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

What to do about it
- “addons kit”, “directory” and “directory websites” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.
- Already on top for “addonskit”. #1 without listing it. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Why did you do this? It crash the elementor layout. No kidding, please fix it or re-think it before public deploy. We have live websites we are not making tests. Thank you back-up, you saved me again! This topic was modified 1 year, 7 months ago by Gabriel Nistor.

At first after elementor update my directorist pages are not working as intended, login and registration failed to shortcode, layout is mess.The addon kit you have to figure workaround which will take you so much time.I didnt get it fixed yet.Thanks for headache lol
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ manuzetace2.0y ago
The mere fact of activating the plugin has destroyed all the current layout of the directory on our website, forms, unique tabs… a disaster. If you already have a layout with elementor for the sections referring to Dierectorist, do not even think about activating the plugin.
