How it's measured →4.5%
of downloads still active
At least 1K of 22.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 947 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ajax archive your tag | #4 | #20 | down 1 |
| ajax calendar your tag | #15 | #23 | down 3 |
| jquery calendar your tag | #17 | #22 | 0 |
| archive | #24 | #24 | down 5 |
| ajax your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| calendar your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
8 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 4 listed. 4 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- One page off on “ajax calendar”. #15 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “ajax” and “calendar” 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.

Release cadence

Thank you for this plugin, sorry for my poor English, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

There is no link the the monthly archive page, only the single day. Fix that and it will be a 5 star widget. For now I can only give it 3 stars because the author neglected such an important function. This topic was modified 8 years, 8 months ago by WebTrooper.

Plug-in is well-designed, well implemented, and interfaces perfectly using a widget. One of the best all-around calendar type plug-ins I’ve seen. Compliments on excellent design and ease of use.
