Biggest opportunity: “custom page”, “custom pages” and “export” 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 700 of 16.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,771 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| custom page your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| custom pages your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| export your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| exporter your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| tools your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Release cadence

Its a awsome plugin for export custom pages.

Installed the plugin but its not clear how you actually do the transport. Should there be a new option under tools/export/ ? or where do I find it?

Worked perfectly
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ asjl5.9y ago
I needed to generate several hundred very similar pages for a site. I created one page by hand, used this to export just that page and then was able to write python code to generate the pages using the exported XML as a template. Saved me lots of time trying to work out what the XML template needed to look like.

worked fine to bring just a couple of pages (with all Advanced Custom Fields metadata) across from localhost -> live site
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ misar6.5y ago
This plugin is very useful to easily select and export a single page but it prevents any other radio button export option from working correctly. Regardless of which option you select or any settings (eg for Posts) the download xml file is always the “All contents” option. In order to export Posts (which I do often) I need to deactivate this plugin and only activate it when needed to export single pages.
