Biggest opportunity: Swap “add to home screen”, “push notifications” and “web push” for “progressive web app”, “progressive” and “org chart”. “add to home screen” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “progressive web app” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “push notifications” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “progressive” sits at #17 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “web push” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “org chart” sits at #20 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

At least 20 of 513 lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 plugins.

What to do about it
- Swap “add to home screen”, “push notifications” and “web push” for “progressive web app”, “progressive” and “org chart”. “add to home screen” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “progressive web app” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “push notifications” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “progressive” sits at #17 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “web push” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “org chart” sits at #20 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 “progressive web apps”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “pwa”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Directory rank
Ranked about #25,300 to #28,300, alongside the other plugins at 20+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 21 Oct 2026.
Update activity
Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.
Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.
Estimated active installs
The public count shows “20+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.
Crossed into this band 3 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 20.
