Biggest opportunity: “admin”, “blog” and “favicon” 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 →4.0%
of downloads still active
At least 60K of 1.5M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,194 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.
Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance 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 3+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.2.15.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| admin your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| blog your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| favicon your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| image your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| theme your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
1 search this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

On my localhost using WAMP this plugin will not upload any file so it is useless.

Can’t you simply add the size of the files that we need to submit to upload?

Only tool that worked to show my favicon in the wp-admin backend and generally on the Chrome Browser. Great work!

Nice simple and fast to use with options for different files. Very good and easy
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ WebDeb9.4y ago
Was hoping to find a solution since the “site identity” control is hidden in wp customizer with Elegant Nimble theme. A red error box flashes at the top of the page upon saving – can’t read the error as it disapears. In the end it did not work out for us.

Displays an advertisement banner in the settings pane. Very unprofessional and not a feature I want.

No updates for three years but still making my life easier. Favicon for all devices managed on a dashboard with very good usability.
