Biggest opportunity: “bricks”, “cookies” and “dynamic tags” 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 30 of 1.7K 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.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |

| bricks your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| cookies your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| dynamic tags your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
0 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

This plugin appears to work exactly as it says it does. It’s tiny. Barely 100 lines of code. Thank goodness, it *only* exposes cookies as an option for element conditions. You are responsible for creating the cookies via some other mechanism. THANK YOU for making this plugin, it’s precisely what I needed and appears to works exactly as I hoped it would. Given how tiny and lightweight this is, I’m really surprised that it’s not just built in Bricks by default.

Thanks for making this useful plugin. Works perfectly. I have used it in Bricks element conditions, to show and hide content based on whether the cookie is there or not. Your plugin made that super easy to do. Thanks!
