Biggest opportunity: Add “pro”, “wordpress portfolio plugin” and “studiopress” to your wp.org tags. You rank #10, #13 and #20 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 3 listed these are the slots worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 5K of 170.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,773 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 1 release 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.

Handy plugin for adding a portfolio custom post type to your Genesis theme. Does exactly what I needed it to do.

This plugin was a lifesaver. After searching the web for a solution and most required moderate to complex solutions and paid tutorials. I was happy to find it and see that it came from a trusted Genesis source. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

I’ve been using Genesis themes with the portfolio CPT for a while. Happy to have it made into a plugin. Now I am not limited to themes who have incorporated it into the theme. And, I’m starting to use it with Advanced Custom Fields to create a customized user experience for data entry
