Biggest opportunity: Swap “map” for “south africa”. “map” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “south africa” sits at #5 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 30K of 755.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,767 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 4 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “map” for “south africa”. “map” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “south africa” sits at #5 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 “map”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

We’ve had multiple issues with the plugin and reached out many times to support for help, but no response has been given. For this reason unfortunately we don’t plan to renew our Premium license upon expiry and will go with a better supported plugin.

EDITED: No solution to the bug reported. Seems like free users don’t matter much. Still getting an error that currently I’m stuck at Version 1.6.18 and any time I want to update it tells me to purchase a license. No chance to skip the dialog and get the update for the free version. Interesting as it includes security updates. Ticket to suppot was answered but not solved. Hence my change to 1 star. Do better! Old review: I have been using the free version of this plugin for a couple years. The free version was enough as it did the job. Issues and smaller bugs were resolved quickly. I assume the error message was caused by a bug. Disappeared after a little while. Has been solved for now: However, not it tells me “update available”. But then when clicking to update, tells me to get a license. Which I won’t and have not asked for. But it’s a catch 22. Automatic update will run, then fail due to license, creating an error email to me. Please fix that, let people decide if the free version is good or if they wanna purchase and get additional functionality. Don’t force me on something like that. Otherwise will look for a new map plugin if you feel that’s the way to go. This topic was modified 10 months, 2 weeks ago by mod666. This topic was modified 10 months, 2 weeks ago by mod666.

I’ve looked at many maps, svg build it types, this one is great! Even the free version is versatile enough to make it an awesome must have. Thank you devs for this plugin! Love it.

Plugin offers good options and it is simple to use but it stopped working all of a sudden. I think there is an issue with map API.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ nahaltours1.9y ago
This Geo map solution is well developed well organized and very intuitive. We were able to implement it very quickly with fantastic results. Enhancing the user experience on our website considerably. James and the team have done a fantastic job, the lifetime license was a no-brainer.
