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

of downloads still active
At least 10 of 4.1K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized 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 4 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| coordinates your tag | #9 | #22 | up 1 |
| lat | #24 | #24 | 0 |
| acf your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| google maps your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| map your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| points your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
5 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 3 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.

It doesn’t work.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ guerrilladigital12.1y ago
I’m trying to use this with ACF Pro 5.0.X and i’m not seeing any way to enter or configure it. Bummer, because i need a way to draw many polylines associated with single custom posts onto one many. This sounded like it would’ve worked, but the lack of documentation makes it useless. Maybe it doesn’t even work with ACF Pro. Who knows?

This plugin seemingly could have resolved the need I had with multiple markers displaying on a single map but the UI isn’t very good and is hard to work with generally. There’s no documentation either. The base skeleton of this add-on is there and it shows promise, that’s the reason for the 2 star rating. Instead of using this plugin I used the repeater field and with the Google Map field within. Not exactly what I needed, but it works.
