Biggest opportunity: “authentication”, “login” and “medical” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

0.8%

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 13.1K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,478 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Login & Users 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.

The one recent review is unhappy, calling the manual thin on setup detail and saying the plugin's options don't do what they promise.

    3.1y ago

    I had high expectations for the DocCheck Login Plugin, especially since it was developed by Antwerpes, a renowned agency from Cologne. Unfortunately, I was let down. Here are some of my main concerns: Incomplete Manual: The manual for the plugin is far from what I would describe as “helpful”. Many features and settings are inadequately or not described at all, which greatly complicates the setup and usage. Missing Functionality: While there are options available in Pages and Posts to protect content with DocCheck, they simply do not function as one would expect. Furthermore, there’s no clear documentation or explanation on how to create custom templates, even though the settings suggest this capability. This lack of clarity and functionality misleads users and does not align with what’s hinted at in the plugin’s settings. Lackluster Support: Even though there aren’t many support inquiries (probably due to the low installation numbers), most questions go unanswered. It’s disappointing to see that the last support response is over a year old. I hope Antwerpes takes these points of criticism seriously and improves the plugin in the future. For now, I cannot recommend it.
