Biggest opportunity: “code”, “copy” and “html” 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 700 of 15.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 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.

No documentation and not tutorial and no instructions. I right-clicked and left-clicked on web page, on code WordPress editor and Elementor editor. Nothing happens. No idea how you are supposed to use this. This topic was modified 1 month ago by webstpro. Reason: grammar errors

Works great! Support is awesome.

Awesome “click© for code” plugin! It’s simple, lightweight, and easy to use. Once installed, it automatically applies to all code blocks with no need for any configuration or article modification.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Maria1.5y ago
I absolutely love this plugin! It affects the code block directly so you don’t have to struggle at all to make any code on your website copyable. Hovering the code block will give a basic “copy to clipboard tooltip” – would love to see it cusomisable for further editions. if you click anywhere within the code block it will copy it and the tooltip will say it’s copied!I absolutely love this small plugin!Edit to add: it works with the latest version of wp This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by Maria.

Doesn’t work with <PRE> tag, and lots of bugs This topic was modified 3 years, 3 months ago by Jan Dembowski.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Nate4.2y ago
You the man. So light and simple. My only change was to add a pseudo element to display a copy to clipboard icon in the corner of the code blocks, because otherwise people have no idea its copyable until they hover. Using pointer-events:none on the icon allows it to not interfere with the click functionality. Maybe something like that could be an option or even just a filer hook for people to optionally enable. Anyway, cheers!

This plugin works great with Code Syntax Block. The only thing I would change is still allowing text to be selected.

This is what I missed with Code Syntax Block, now I can provide an easy click-paste tool for users, thanks a lot for this plugin !
