Biggest opportunity: Swap “code”, “php” and “snippets” for “custom javascript”, “css effects” and “mvc”. “code” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “custom javascript” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “php” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “css effects” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “snippets” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mvc” sits at #10 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 →1.8%
of downloads still active
At least 10K of 550.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,764 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.
This plugin shipped 1 release in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Reviewer account pattern
from wp.org reviewer profiles16 of the last 25 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 11 of those landed between 2018-04-23 and 2018-05-07.
Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

It is a good plugin for your average needs. It used to be much better in the past, but they removed features in the free version that other similar plugins still offer for free.

I needed to get custom js code in the header on certain pages, this plugin enabled me to do that quickly – very happy!

Thanks guys for the update, version 9 fixed a lot of the issues i had with PHP7. Also like the new color. Keep it up! 🙂

This is one of the most unintuitive plugins you will run across. It uses non-Wordpress standard UI, it creates a load of tables in your DB (17 tables), it is completely bloated for its intended functionality. It gets 2 stars because it DOES work.

Amazing plugin, best for customization.
