Biggest opportunity: Swap “pdf”, “rtl” and “pdf viewer” for “pdf flipbook”, “webgl” and “export pdf”. “pdf” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “pdf flipbook” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “rtl” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “webgl” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “pdf viewer” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “export pdf” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →4.9%
of downloads still active
At least 800 of 16.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,765 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.
This plugin shipped 38 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.

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.

What to do about it
- Swap “pdf”, “rtl” and “pdf viewer” for “pdf flipbook”, “webgl” and “export pdf”. “pdf” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “pdf flipbook” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “rtl” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “webgl” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “pdf viewer” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “export pdf” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “pdf viewer”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Easy to set up, user-friendly, and works exactly as expected. The free version offers great features, and the Pro version looks even more powerful. The flipbook effect is smooth, and the plugin integrates perfectly with WordPress. Highly recommended!

I’ve been using the free version of this plugin, and I’m genuinely impressed with its quality and ease of use. The setup is straightforward, the interface is user-friendly, and the flipbook effect is smooth and professional. As a WordPress developer with 15+ years of experience, I’ve worked with many PDF flipbook plugins, and this one stands out for its performance, customization options, and clean design. Even the free version offers plenty of useful features for most projects, while the Pro version includes some excellent advanced functionality that looks very promising. The plugin integrates well with WordPress, works reliably, and the documentation is easy to follow. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a modern PDF flipbook solution. Great work by the development team – keep it up!
