Biggest opportunity: “custom logo”, “login logo” and “wp admin logo” 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.

of downloads still active
At least 20K of 191.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,476 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.

I have activated the plugin, selected a png file, not showing the image. Changed to jpg file, not showing the image.. I can see that the placeholder is working, but not displaying the image. Any ideas?

I needed to store the files in a subdirectory of the themes root directory. For whatever reason, embedanydoc wouldn’t open the file. In the plugin’s setup, there needs to be an option to pick the directory where docs will be stored. When we migrate, we can’t go back through hundreds, maybe thousands of pages changing the url in these shortcodes. Comment box won’t let me enter the actual url so I put in “|” pipe symbols in place of backslashes and changed “http:” to “htxp”: here to illustrate.[embeddoc url=”htxp:||gbbs2.local|wp-content|themes|groupbigbookstudy|docs|Title-Page-GBBS.docx” viewer=”microsoft”] embedanydoc reports the error, “An error occurred. We’re sorry, but for some reason we can’t open this for you.” But, there’s no explanation, no clue, and no way to find the problem.

This is the best plugin for changing your login page logo, because it is super lightweight, and it does exactly what it says it will.
