Biggest opportunity: “child support”, “child support calculator” and “lawyer plugins” 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.

0.2%

of downloads still active

At least 10 of 4.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Chat & Support plugin keeps 0.8%, across 627 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Chat & Support plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

Removal-risk signals

53/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 3+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.1.16.

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.

    Had a client with specific needs, thought I wouldn’t find a plugin for that, but then I found this and made a child support calculator for them in minutes.
