Biggest opportunity: Swap “buddypress” for “conferencing”. “buddypress” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “conferencing” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →1.6%
of downloads still active
At least 600 of 37.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,317 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.

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.

The perfect plugin. allows you to use jitsi meet from your site. The page is added to the articles by short code. thanks By Themis Dakanalis Request “jitsi meet manage”: I think the feature should be provided with a separate shortcode. This topic was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by ayhanrv.

The plugin does not render the iframe correctly. The iframe URL is correct but the rendering in the buddypress does not work. Also, there is no option for it to be opened in a new tab instead of inside the buddypress content area.
