Biggest opportunity: Swap “sections” and “style” for “p2” and “elegant themes”. “sections” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “p2” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “style” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “elegant themes” sits at #15 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 10K of 411.6K 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.

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.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

I didn’t expect it to work with wp 6.7.1 and both combination of classic theme and FSE theme. But it works! This was such a pleasant surprise! Excellent idea and realization. I would only suggest that settings interface of a plugin is a little more straightforward. Also, including regex for URL matching would be nice as well.Message to the plugin author – you can update compatibility to match WP 6.7

The plugin doesn’t seem to work. And the support requires you to register to add a ticket, not useful.
