Biggest opportunity: Swap “block” for “beautiful”. “block” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “beautiful” sits at #17 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 5K of 33.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,577 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks 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.

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 “block” for “beautiful”. “block” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “beautiful” sits at #17 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 “accordion”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “toggles”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Sometimes it’s a bit finicky when it comes to styling or putting other types of things IN the accordion, but most of the time it works just as I want it to. This plugin makes things like extra details and questions, requirements, tips, lots of links, etc easy to group under one expand section.

Great plugin! Easy to use and stylish! No fuss with shortcodes, add your content directly on Gutenberg.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ yukiko-kawa4.1y ago
I was looking for a separate plugin dedicated only to accordins. And out of all this is the one with the most personalization and content you want. Oh maybe a few more flaws, but the style customization is easy to use and full of choices. And in its content I can put all the blocks I want! Perhaps small shortcomings are: _not being able to choose if one of the panels is already open when loading the page (but it is fine to me that they are all closed for now) _set the background of closed titles different from the background color of the content. This is if you want to create blocks with a strong background and white text. But you can bypass it by selecting another background color with active container … _It also has a small css error on the opening icons in mobile. It can be corrected with this code which widens the width of the content: @media screen and (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 756px){ .gutena-accordion-block .trigger-plus-minus {min-width: 20px;} .gutena-accordion-block .trigger-up-down { min-width: 18px;} } _then there is an open and close icon which remains black instead of following the text color or border color. It wouldn’t be bad to be able to choose the color of that too. _and just a gem to insert a small icon to the left of the text. Because I can put a group in line, but the image for some reason slips in the visualization. I personally solved it with another plugin that allows me to put the images in line with the text and with the css I removed all the margins and padding of the images (in this case they are images inside <p> and therefore different from the images in the text) After all, excellent !!!! I’ve tried several, and this is the choice I made. Are we waiting for the vertical TAB version!? also suitable for furniture … This topic was modified 3 years, 9 months ago by yukiko-kawa.
