Biggest opportunity: “clone” and “copy” 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.

How it's measured →16%
of downloads still active
At least 100K of 635.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,194 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| duplicate menu | #3 | #3 | down 1 |
| duplicate your tag | #9 | #8 | down 1 |
| clone menu | #4 | #3 | — |
| copy menu | #7 | #6 | down 1 |
| menu your tag | #20 | #17 | down 3 |

| wp duplicate | #15 | #16 | down 2 |

32 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 8 listed. 24 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- “clone” and “copy” 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.
- Already on top for “duplicate menu”. #3 without listing it. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

Essential tool
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Kori Ashton1.5y ago
I had a pretty advanced multilevel menu that I really did not want to re-create. So I added this free plug-in and clicked one button and it duplicated the menu perfectly for me allowing me to make edits and assign it to a different area on my website. Thank you for an easy to use tool.
