5.9%

of downloads still active

At least 70K of 1.2M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,766 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 3 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.

    Thank you for this plugin. I ultimately need this feature, and have used several similar plugins before, even paid. This plugin might be the last I will probably use forever, as it is simple and does not distort the content.
