of downloads still active

At least 1K of 7.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,263 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    I think it’s great I would like it not to give any error message information if the blacklist is on, in fact I would like a message to appear saying “Sent successfully.” This topic was modified 2 years, 9 months ago by JesusSol.
