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.

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

53/100

Maintenance 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.

    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.
