Biggest opportunity: Add “enhanced” to your wp.org tags. You rank #14 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 3 listed it's a slot worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 100 of 6.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,187 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| plugin admin your tag | #12 | #22 | 0 |
| enhanced | #14 | #16 | down 1 |
| plugin info your tag | #22 | #22 | up 2 |
| inactive plugins | #21 | #21 | 0 |
| plugin management your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
7 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 4 listed. 3 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Add “enhanced” to your wp.org tags. You rank #14 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 3 listed it's a slot worth spending.
- One page off on “plugin admin”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Very useful for keeping up with your plugins all in one page, makes it easier to notice which plugin hasn’t been updated in a very long time, which one demands a wordpress update, what version do you have now installed and what version is the newest etc’ I really like it, keep up the great work! 🙂

This plugin is very, very useful. Add to you the possibility to checks if plugin still be in WP repo, if is old, with bad or good score and … wonderful function to hide a plug-in update -> great for when you need turn back to the not bugged plugin and ask to the author to fix new strong issue in new plugins version! Thank you! Questo plugin è veramente utile, ti permette di controllare se i plugin che hai installato sono ancora nel catalogo di WordPress e cioè se sono sicuri. Ti permette di controllare il punteggio buono o cattivo e di vedere la data dell’ultimo aggiornamento. Una funzione fantastica permette di disattivare le notifiche di aggiornamento su un plugin che potrebbe essere difettoso, in attesa che alcuni problemi su quel plugin, vengano risolti.

Great plugin – really useful to find out which plugins should be removed/exchanged. Could include Compatibility info to: like ” 0 people say it works. 0 people say it’s broken. ” for latest wordpress version. But yeah – far too often the compatibility info is lacking on wordpress.

Painless install and activation. All the info I need to see the state of my plugins at a glance. Thank you!

Great plugin as this includes all needed info, I could now delete 3 other plugins and more over the speed to get plugin list loaded was a success for me as the other slowed it down. Keep up your good work!! 🙂 Per
