Biggest opportunity: Add “artificial intelligence” to your wp.org tags. You rank #13 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed it's a slot worth spending.

How it's measured →3.4%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 2.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,010 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| sustainability your tag | #3 | #3 | 0 |
| disable ai your tag | #10 | #17 | down 1 |
| turn off your tag | #14 | #23 | down 2 |
| artificial intelligence | #13 | #11 | up 1 |
| ai your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
5 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 4 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Add “artificial intelligence” to your wp.org tags. You rank #13 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed it's a slot worth spending.
- One page off on “turn off”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Because f*$k AI.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ l1mak011mo ago
I have recently been annoyed to see the proliferation of unwanted AI smeared all over WordPress. It might be nice if there was a global setting that plugin developers would respect to not show unwanted AI elements, but this is a good start of adversarial coding to remove the unwanted elements.

Been trying to find ways to disable AI “features” that I never asked for and do not want. Yet developers seem hell-bent on forcing these down our throats in the name of following the latest trend. This plugin worked for me to disable AI features on WPForms and (most of) AIOSEO. This topic was modified 7 months, 1 week ago by bobbrown99.
