Biggest opportunity: Add “discord server” to your wp.org tags. You rank #18 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.

0.8%

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 13K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,770 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 2 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.

Negative Broken updates

Both reviewers say the plugin simply doesn't work, one reporting a channel list that won't display or update and the other calling the widget worse than Discord's own embed.

    It’s amazing how a dedicated wordpress widget can look worse than the official iframe widget. No color, no button, just a list of your channels, non clickable, no way to use it directly. Perfectly useless in this version.

    I have checked multiple times to check I have done everything right. But it just doesn’t work, it works to click connect and it sends me to the right discord but it says 0 online and it doesn’t update. This plugin is broken. If this gets fixed then I’m going to update my review.

Can an assistant quote this readme? Eight deterministic checks over the wp.org listing, no model involved.

  • ! Says what it does Short description names no action; say what the plugin does for the site.
  • ! Has a FAQ Only 1 question in the FAQ; 3 or more gives an assistant something to match.
  • ! FAQ asks real questions 1 of 1 FAQ entries are headings, not questions ("None yet!").
  • ! Names who it is for Never says who the plugin is for or what they use it for.
  • ✓ Names what it works with Mentions Discord.
  • ! Headings and lists 0 headings and 0 lists; assistants quote headed sections and bullet lists, not paragraphs.
  • ! Enough to quote 95 characters of description; under 1,000 there is little to quote.
  • ! Tags match the text Only 1 of 4 tags appear in the text ("mumble", "team speak", "teamspeak" missing).
