Biggest opportunity: Add “theme fonts”, “dummy content” and “custom font” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4, #9 and #11 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 3 listed these are the slots worth spending.

of downloads still active

At least 60K of 814.7K 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.

This plugin shipped 3 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.

    Why does it keep telling me “Please enter the valid Project ID to get the kit details.” when I literally enter the ID, it doesn’t want to use it, I keep fighting against it for hours now…

    I messed around for way too long before I decided to search for a plugin. Wish I woulda done this from the get-go! Yay Brainstorm Force! Nice easy way to add Adobe Typekit fonts to Beaver Builder modules.

    When i look the waterfall chart, i always see my the url of typekit is canceled. The status is 412. What i did for the plugin is only input my Project ID. IDK why it showed canceled status and slowed my website.

    There was a time when I didn’t put much thought into the topography I used, but now I realize that it’s one of the most important parts of web design. The free plugin makes it so easy to use Typekit fonts in the Astra Theme, something that most themes don’t have any integration with. Hopefully, more theme developers will add support.

    Have changed my review as I can’t delete it, I wasn’t attempting to make the developer look bad! I missed in the text that this plugin only works with one theme which was quite inconvenient at the time… I think it should probably be made a bit clearer because when you’re searching and trying plugin after plugin you eventually find yourself banging your head against a brick wall when you come across plugins like this.
