of downloads still active
At least 10K of 296.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,478 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Login & Users 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
- Your five tags are all earning their place. Each gets you onto page 1 of its own search, so none is worth giving up. “from”, “add users” and “export users” (#4, #11 and #23 untagged) would be the next worth testing if a slot frees up.

This plugin notified all 150 users from a staging site they we were working on. This is despite choosing the box not to notify new users. I am receiving a slew of angry and confused emails. Thanks for nothing… I should have just added them manually.

If you have a list of 2-3 users, things work fine. If you scale up to anything larger than that, it times out pretty quickly. At that point, just create them manually.

The external plug-in used to work perfectly, since they force us to use this plugin for Paid Memberships Pro I have had nothing but failures. Constantly exceeds the memory of the server, error 500 constantly, I deleted the import_membership_id field damaging many logical programming that I have on my site with this field … They should give the option to use this or the previous one.

Worked really well. Two tips for new users: 1) Use the example CSV file to get your data formatted for import 2) Ensure you use ALL the columns required (you don’t need to worry about the custom ones) Thanks for saving me loads of pain importing multiple users.

I downloaded this plugin in desperation yesterday and it did exactly what I needed it to. The sample of what the csv file should look like enabled me to merge data from MailChimp and WooCommerce to add user to the site, so they could log in. Terrific plug-in!
