Biggest opportunity: “gallery”, “images” and “wordpress gallery” 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 40 of 3.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,318 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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.

| gallery your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| images your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| wordpress gallery your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Release cadence

I recently used Easy Post Gallery to add beautiful galleries to my Reference CPT, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The plugin is incredibly intuitive and saved me hours of coding. Why I love it: Effortless Setup: Creating and managing galleries is a breeze—perfect for my custom post types. Lightweight & Fast: No bloated code or slowdowns on my site. A special shoutout to the support team! They were responsive, patient, and went above and beyond to help me troubleshoot a small configuration hiccup. Thanks to Easy Post Gallery, I achieved exactly the polished, user-friendly gallery experience I envisioned for my References section. Highly recommended for anyone needing a reliable, gallery plugin! Keep up the amazing work! 🚀 — Georges Lévy ETOUNDI OYONO
