Biggest opportunity: Swap “exchange rates” for “tourism”. “exchange rates” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #17. “tourism” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 1K of 37.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,773 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 4 releases 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.

everthing was good unless html output language can not be changed, even if you edit php files. the plugin will be more useful and reach more user if output language can change by the site admin. because this reason i have to uninstall it 🙁

Imo, this is the most visually pleasing of the free currency calculators available. I was originally confused when the code didn’t change, but then found out it doesn’t generate code until you hit the save button. I don’t care for the plus sign in the lower left corner that links to a currency converter website. This topic was modified 7 years, 11 months ago by saclucas.
