low volume, under 1,000 downloads a month
Biggest opportunity: “hide content”, “hide image” and “hide text” 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.

How it's measured →1.4%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 6.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,785 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| hide content your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| hide image your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| hide text your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| show content your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| show text your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
1 search this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Perfect when you don’t need a complicated membership plugin, but in the same time, you want to display different content for logged-in users. Good job!

If I can afford a suggestion I would add the possibility of distinguishing the different roles. Anyway it was useful to me. This topic was modified 5 years, 11 months ago by massimorigoni.
