Biggest opportunity: Swap “data”, “table” and “table builder” for “present”, “paging” and “data table”. “data” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “present” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “table” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “paging” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “table builder” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “data table” sits at #21 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 100 of 5.5K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,265 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| present | #6 | #20 | 0 |
| data tables your tag | #12 | #21 | down 1 |
| paging | #15 | #19 | down 3 |
| data table | #21 | #21 | down 1 |
| post paging | #15 | #19 | 0 |
| data filtering | #18 | #24 | down 2 |
| data your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| table your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

| tables your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
11 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 6 listed. 5 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Swap “data”, “table” and “table builder” for “present”, “paging” and “data table”. “data” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “present” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “table” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “paging” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “table builder” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “data table” sits at #21 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “data tables”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ leanderbraunschweig4.4y ago
Just stumbled upon this plugin since I am looking for a lightweight table implementation and since this one builds upon DataTables and wraps everthing in a Gutenberg block I was quite intreagued… The code doesn’t seem to be ready for production though, inspecting the main data-tables.php yields code fragements such as directors_name and references to a MOVIE CUSTOM TYPE POST ? Please clean up the code 😉 Looking forward!

All I needed was 10 minutes to realize what a good plugin this is, it even has a Gutenberg block so I can also build the tables right in a page/post. The sorting, searching, and pagination is what really sold me here. My go to tool to display tables for now on, that’s for sure. Nick.
