Biggest opportunity: “better members list”, “members” and “memberships” 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.

of downloads still active
At least 20 of 13.4K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,764 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.
Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 4+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.9.20.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| pmpro enhancements your tag | #10 | #8 | — |
| better members list your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| members your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| memberships your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| paid memberships pro your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
1 search this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- “better members list”, “members” and “memberships” 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.

Have just installed on a dev site (new to PM Pro). Adds functionality sorely missed to the default members list IMO, particularly when first setting up and testing a site. Kudos to the dev and my thanks for contributing it to the community.

I held off on my review as the plugin initially had one glitch where it was only showing all subscriptions as monthly or annual (I also have quarterly & semi-annual terms). I notified the plugin author of the issue & he fixed it. 5-stars now.

Thank you for writing this plugin and making it free. It has saved me a lot of time in managing users on PMPRO. I did find a couple glitches with the Bulk Updater – at times it did not work. But all in all a very useful tool.
