Biggest opportunity: Swap “forum” for “information”. “forum” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “information” sits at #10 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 70 of 11.4K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,478 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Login & Users 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 1 release 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “forum” for “information”. “forum” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “information” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Directory rank
Ranked about #18,200 to #19,000, alongside the other plugins at 70+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.
Update activity
Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.
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
Occasionally updatedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Worked great, thanks.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Antipole8.0y ago
Works great – exactly what I needed. A further embelishment would be to allow for a admin defined label to display rather than the profile field name. I could well shorten the displayed name.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ birka9.1y ago
Works well, but it needs some new options, for example: font size settings.

The labels for each field can be switched on or off. Excellent!
