Biggest opportunity: “title” and “wp” 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 30K of 694.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,770 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.

High removal-risk signals

63/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.2.30, well behind 6.8.

    I just heard about this trying to find a way to hide some pages from the wp site because there are just way to many in navigation bar, so I said wow hmmm nice idea. WRONG it’s activated and showing in Hide ALL plugins but it’s nowhere to be found to be able to use it on any pages… removing it, it’s not worth my time to try to find a needle in a hay stack. Just sent them an email but read their requests was gone unattended so, I came here.

    I find this plugin to be very beneficial. Hopefully as the updates happen, it addresses/fixes some of the issues. I can say it does work on WP 5.2.1 (I’m using it on my site now). It seems to work fine on manually created pages on WordPress, but for other extensions – not so much, for example, WooCommerce. The option shows to hide the title, however when I visit one of the WooCommerce created pages (ie. Store), the title remains shown. I can’t speak on the un-install aspect, as I plan to keep this. Hopefully the developers continue with the updates for us. Thanks!
