6.9%

of downloads still active

At least 10K of 144.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,324 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media 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.

    This plugin is completely paid, you can’t even edit the style, stay away, don’t support something so trivial.

    This plugin was working great, easy to use. Then suddenly it started having tons of “Upgrade to Pro” messages, and nothing works anymore. Some kind of bait and switch?
