Biggest opportunity: Swap “ai”, “woocommerce” and “rest api” for “connectors”, “mcp server” and “oauth”. “ai” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “connectors” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mcp server” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “rest api” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “oauth” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

8.0%

of downloads still active

At least 5K of 62.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,011 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI 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 60 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.

    This has been working great for me. I use it to handle post management with my AI agents, and I haven’t run into any issues at all. It’s simple, reliable, and just does what it’s supposed to do without any drama. It’s been a solid addition to my workflow. This topic was modified 3 months, 1 week ago by Phuong Duy Nguyen. Reason: Updating this because they’ve added English support

    This wonderful plugin not only brings the ability to use WordPress.com’s MCP to the self-hosted version, it also expands its capabilities and makes it something really useful. I’m very satisfied with how it works now, but I’m already excited to see what’s next.
