Biggest opportunity: Swap “advertise” for “multiuser”. “advertise” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “multiuser” sits at #18 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 30 of 15.9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,769 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.
High removal-risk signals
71/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.35, well behind 6.8.
- Negative reviews. Recent reviews are running negative.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| digitalsignagepress your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| digital signage your tag | #23 | #20 | down 1 |
| multiuser | #18 | #15 | 0 |
| advertise your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| display your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| signage your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
8 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 3 listed. 5 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Swap “advertise” for “multiuser”. “advertise” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “multiuser” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

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.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Activating this plugin immediately breaks your site! It is no longer supported and the Devs seem to have abandoned this project. Dont install it!

Everything ran well at first. Even with my own installation. Started experiencing video issues, only to find out via a forum on their site that there is a horrible video glitch in the software that they wont fix. Had the enterprise edition and tried to receive some help with the video initially then with file size issues only to have them refuse assistance and blame my wordpress installation. I requested a refund and they wouldn’t even give a partial. Complete waste of time and money!
