Biggest opportunity: Add “divi theme”, “divi modules” and “rdfa” to your wp.org tags. You rank #5, #6 and #11 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 3 listed these are the slots worth spending.

11%

of downloads still active

At least 10K of 93.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,765 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized 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 2 releases 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.

    Hey thanks for this plugin. I struggled with all my options using Divi and Divi Supreme and Yoast breadcrumbs. I couldn’t get any of those to correctly display the hierarchy of the categories, but yours did it perfectly! Also, I was wondering how to get rid of the word ‘Category:’ in the breadcrumbs and that question was answered cleanly in your support threads. Perfect now! Many thanks again. Ben

    I am simply trying to change the “home” link to go to the “shop” page & there is no setting to do this. When I went to the wordpress.org forum, this question has been asked time and time again, with no response. Bummer 🙁
