Biggest opportunity: “acf”, “admin” and “advanced custom fields” 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 →0.8%
of downloads still active
At least 70 of 8.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,186 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.0.38, well behind 6.8.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| acf4 your tag | #10 | #8 | down 1 |
| acf your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| admin your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| advanced custom fields your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| custom fields your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
3 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 1 listed. 2 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.
Release cadence

WordPress 5.1 – ACF Pro 5.7 Je veux vraiment remercier l’auteur de cet Advanced Custom Field for ACF. D’une simplicité exceptionnelle : aucun besoin de créer des fonctions compliquées, juste à insérer le code php dans la page. De plus ses possibilités d’ajouter des points pour marquer les lieux, des lignes pour les entourer… Waouh Really thanks for this awesome ACF field. Laurent de Coudenhove
