How it's measured →0.1%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 139K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,764 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 7 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.

46 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 9 listed. 37 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- One page off on “equity”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “donation” and “fundraising” 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.
- Already on top for “ignitiondeck”. #1 without listing it. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Crossed into this band 51 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 100.

The Ignition Deck team has been incredibly helpful in setting up all the bells & whistles we needed for our own dedicated platform. They were very forthcoming with info and understood perfectly what we needed. Seriously, why use an external platform when you can have your own?

I stopped using ignition deck for more than 5 years but am recently spammed by the company to give a review. SO here’s my honest review;The product starts great but when you need to customize it gets pretty tricky or difficult that you end up rebuilding your own and lost a ton of money in the process.

we installed this and have used it in tha past without any problems and it was easy really, thanks for reading

I tried this platform a few years ago, (and I had a free version), just to try it out. and it worked excellent! – easy to install and configure – I can expect their newest version is spectacular, and I know from back then how good their service was – they helped without hesitation, and I wasn’t even a paying client. I highly recommend this platform, for fund raising, crowd funding (if you know how to do it legally) or however it fits your needs. And again their service was awesome, easy to work with, instant responses, everything you would expect customer service to be – they were!, and then some. By far up and above using anything like Kick starter, start engine, go fund me and etc. You get to own your own platform! how great is that!
